If the Six-Fingered Woman was indeed considered a spiritual figure, then her burial place should have contained objects that reflected her exalted status, and indeed it did. Photo: @Ben Hume.

Among the funerary objects recovered from the tomb were greenstone necklaces and mother-of-pearl jewelry, stone bracelets, pendants and beads crafted from exotic materials such as alabaster and greenstone. Photo: @M. Kunin/IAA.

"The discovery of an ancient shaman's tomb in Motza opens a door into the spiritual world of communities that lived some 9,000 to 10,000 years ago. It also shows how complex and rich the cultural beliefs of ancient humanity were," said Eli Eskosido, director of the Israel Antiquities Authority. Photo: @Archaeology Magazine.
