Ordos bronze of a standing doe in the round, Eastern Zhou dynasty, China, 6th-early 5th century BC.
Ordos bronze of a standing doe in the round, Eastern Zhou dynasty, China, 6th-early 5th century BC. A hollow bronze doe from the Ordos region, south-western Inner Mongolia, cast in the round standing on a baseline which consists of two parallel bars, one under the hooves on each side. The animal's distinctive conformation - the hind legs longer than the front legs - suggests the musk deer, which has inhabited Siberia and East Asia from antiquity. Mould marks bisect the body lengthwise.
