Hand-carved statue - Goddess Ziva (also known as Shiva, Shiva, Siva, Sieba, Razivia or Ziwia). She is the Goddess of the Western Slavs, especially the Polabian Slavs and the Southern Slavs. She was worshipped in what is now the Czech Republic, Poland, Germany (especially the Elbe River valley), Slovakia and Slovenia. It represents fertility, love and life-giving power (hence Živa). According to the South Slavs, it is a fairy who taught people to plough and herd. People have been weaving wreaths of flowers in her honour since ancient times.
