The Masked Goddess (仮面の女神, Kamen no Megami) is a relatively large Japanese dogū or clay figurine of the late Jōmon period (c. 2000–1000 BC).[1][2] Excavated from the Nakappara Site in Chino, Nagano Prefecture, it is exhibited at the nearby Togariishi Museum of Jōmon Archaeology. Alongside the "Hollow Dogū" from Hokkaidō, the "dogū with palms pressed together" from Aomori Prefecture, "Jōmon Goddess [ja]" from Yamagata Prefecture, and "Jōmon Venus" that was also excavated in Chino, it is one of five dogū that have been designated National Treasures.[2][3][4]
