The Lady of Elche, also known as Lady of Elx, is a limestone figurine of a woman’s head found at a private estate at La Alcudia, few kilometers south of Elche, Spain.
This Iberian relic is thought to have been made in the early 4th century BC, although the artistry suggests strong Hellenistic influences.
