The Adam of Govrlevo, often referred to as the Adam of Macedonia, is a Neolithic sculpture found by archaeologist Milos Bilbija of the Skopje City Museum, where it now resides. More than 7.000 years old, it is the oldest artwork and artifact found in the Republic of Macedonia. Dating from the 6th millennium BC, the sculpture's creator represented a sitting male body, and showed remarkable details in the spine, ribs and navel, and erect phallus.
