Venusfigurine from Mal'ta: wrong depiction and and a misleading text –

I have removed the picture. it is not showing the "Venus of Mal'ta", but maybe a venusfigurine from Gagarino (Russia). Evidence:

Henri Delporte (1979), L’image de la femme dans l‘art préhistorique. Page 114 (left side)

Wikipedia must avoid to "copy and paste" the mistakes from authors.

The whole article is misleading, because there are at least n=23 whole venusfigurioens from Mal'ta (see: Delporte (1979), p. 197)
