Many anthropologists consider the female figures found in caves and other Paleolithic sites, often referred to as "Venus figurines," to represent the female form. These statuettes are typically characterized by exaggerated physical features associated with fertility, such as large breasts and hips, suggesting that they may represent fertility, motherhood, or the idealized female body. The interpretations can vary, but the predominant view is that they symbolize aspects of womanhood, fertility, or the nurturing role of women in early human societies.
