Among the artefacts distinct to Boeotia are a series of female terracotta figurines dressed in bell-shaped skirts, these fashioned on the potter’s wheel and flattened while still malleable; all are Late Geometric or sub-Geometric and were found in the graves of women and children from the tenth to the eighth century or in votive deposits associated with these. Designs evocative of weaving decorate many of their garments, and the most highly ornamented of the figurines, dated to the late eighth century, comes complete with locks of hair, a necklace, sandals and a frieze of dancing females circling around her richly patterned skirt; the dancers are similarly dressed in woven textiles (fig. 7.0).
