Summary

Description
עברית: לפי השלט במוזיאון ישראל: "צלמית נדירה זו של אלת פריון כנענית מתארת את גוף האלה מבפנים ומבחוץ בו־זמנית ברגע שהיא מכינה עצמה ללידת תאומים. התאומים־העוברים שברחמה אוחזים בשדיה.

הצלמית מייצגת אולי את האשרה, המכונה "קדשה" וגם "רחמי" (בעלת הרחם) שילדה על־פי המיתוס את צמד האלים שחר ושלם. על ירכי האלה נראים סמליה, העץ הקדוש ולצדו יעל. הצלמית הייתה כנראה קמע ליולדת." כינויי האשרה ומיתוס לידת שחר ושלם הם חלק משירת אוגרית. ראו https://www.imj.org.il/he/collections/198014

English: According to the sign in Israel Museum: "This exceptional figurine of a Canaanite fertility goddess depicts the goddess from both the interior and the exterior perspectives, as she prepares herself for the delivery of twins. The twins, seen within her womb, clutch at her breasts.

The figurine may represent Asherah, called the "sacred prostitute" or the "one of the womb." According to myth, Asherah gave birth to the twin gods Shahar and Shalem. Symbols of Asherah, the sacred tree and ibex, appear on the goddess's thighs. The figurine was probably an amulet for women in childbirth."

The names and the myth are of Ugarit epic poetry; in Canaanite, QDŠH also means "sacred", and not only "sacred prostitute". See The Figurine from Revadim – Wet-nurse or Child-bearing Woman?
