Canaanite bronze fertility statue

By TamaraM, 2 June, 2015
Description

Solid bronze statue, approx 24cm in height.  SImilar in appearance to statues depicting the Canaanite deity Baal, with similar cone-shaped head and large flat feet, however my statue is female, quite obviously a fertility figure.

I don't know whether it's authentic.  I've had it for 16 years and only now started to research what it may be.
