The Zbruch Idol is a 9th century Slavic sculpture.

 

In 19th century, when the Zbruch River (Dniester's tributary) changed its bed, the area where the pillar was buried became submerged[2]. It was discovered during a drought near the village called Liczkowce under Polish rule, now Lychkivtsi (Личківці), Ukraine, just north of Husiatyn in 1848.

The statue is now on display in the Archaeological Museum in Kraków, Poland, with exact copies located in a number of museums.
