Hi Jeannie,
At least the figurine and the moldavite artefacts are from the same level in
the site: level 9 (the 'Upper level') and thus contemporary in a broad sense.
Whether they really were found in close context with each other, I don't know.
As far as I know, not too much of the exact context of the figurine is actually
known.
By the way, not to disappoint anyone: but the figurine on display in the
museum, is actually a copy. The real one is kept in a safe.
