An LH III wheelmade terracotta female figurine, found in the 1910 excavations at the Menelaion, Sparta, is illustrated and described. The context can be dated no later than LH III. An earlier suggestion that the piece is ‘provincial’ is discounted in the light of new material, particularly the so-called Lady of Phylakopi. Recent views on the nature of such figures are discounted. A summary list of comparable wheelmade figures of women, and of animals, is appended
