The period that represents the Greeks' first attempts at carving stone is the Archaic period, which lasted from around 800 to 480 BCE. During this time, sculptors began to develop techniques for representing the human figure in stone, leading to the creation of the iconic kouros and kore statues. These early works often featured stylized forms and rigid poses, reflecting the cultural values and artistic conventions of the time.
