The Tambourine Player
A small terracotta figurine from the Cyprus Museum of Natural History
The tambourine player is a small-size standing terracotta figurine from the Cypro-Archaic II period (ca. 600–480 BCE) in Cyprus, depicting a female musician playing a small drum. The figurine’s body is flat and elongated, but its lower part is missing, making it incomplete. This edition provides insights into the morphological and functional aspects of the figurine, deepening our understanding of terracotta production and the island culture while also shedding light on the modelling process. Moreover, the 3D model offers the opportunity to explore the clay figurine from all angles interactively, offering a tactile-like experience.
