Tanagara sculpture of a female minstral The terracotta figures from the ancient city of Tanagra in Boetoia, central Greece, represent some of the finest examples of early sculptures dating back to 300 BC. Tanagra also became synonymous for a young woman, who was remarkable for her grace and finesse, due to the beauty of the aesthetics of their statuary at the time. In most ancient cultures, Terracotta (Italian translation -- ‘baked earth’) was featured prominently for utilitarian cooking wares, figures of worship and decoration, structural forms, planters, large storage amphora, wine vessels and a myriad of other uses.
