The Language of the Goddess: Unearthing the Hidden Symbols of Western Civilization
Well Kept (Good)
Archaeologist Marija Gimbutas interprets the recurring symbols of prehistoric Old Europe as evidence of a complex goddess-centered spiritual tradition. Richly illustrated with figurines, pottery, ritual objects, and other archaeological material, the book traces patterns in imagery associated with birth, death, regeneration, animals, and the natural world. Gimbutas combines visual analysis, comparative mythology, and archaeology in an influential and debated work that invites readers to consider how symbolic systems may illuminate early European religion and culture.
