Publisher Notes


Gimbutas sketches the village culture that evolved in southeastern Europe before it was overwhelmed by the patriarchal Indo-European culture.



Through study of sculpture, vases, and other cult objects from southeastern Europe, Gimbutas sketches the village culture that evolved there before it was overwhelmed by the patriarchal Indo-Europeans. The goddess incarnating the creative principle as Source and Giver of All, fertility images, mythical animals, and other artifacts are analyzed for their mythic and social significance in this beautifully illustrated study.
