The Adam of Macedonia, earlier often referred to as the Adam of Govrlevo,[1] is a neolithic sculpture found by archaeologist Milos Bilbija of the Skopje City Museum where it now resides.[2] More than 7,000 years old, it is the oldest artwork and artifact found in the Republic of North Macedonia. Dating from the 6th millennium BC, the sculpture's creator represented a sitting male body, and showed details in the spine, ribs and navel, and erect phallus.
