This is a Neolithic archaic artefact from China/Mongolia. Presumably from the HongShan culture
The Hongshan culture is one of the oldest Neolithic cultures in China, its members lived between central Mongolia and the provinces Liaoning and Hebei.
“Hongshan” means “Red Mountain” and refers to a location in central Mongolia.
Artefacts from this culture often show ancient deities whose depiction is reminiscent of extraterrestrials for a modern observer.
