The figurine of Goddess Kuldevi is a terracotta object of a woman sitting adorned with large round earrings and a sophisticated necklace. Portions of the object have chipped away and there are indications of jewelry running along the remaining arm. The female extremities have been exaggerated which addresses the female form as a vessel for fertility. This figurine dates to the Shunga/Kushan period (200 BC-200 AD) and was found at the Jhusi site in Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, India. It currently resides in the HNB Garhwal University Department of Ancient History, Culture, and Archaeology where it was scanned with a NextEngine Desktop 3D scanner.
