Certain aspects of the Goddess in the Ancient Near East, 10,000-330 BCEAdair, Jennette 29 February 2008 (has links)
In the historical tapestry of the development of the Goddess, from 10,000 - 330 BCE one
golden thread shines through. Despite the vicissitudes of differing status, she remained
essentially the same, namely divine. She was continuously sought in the many mysteries,
mystic ideologies and through the manifestations that she inspired. In all the countries of
the Ancient Near East, the mother goddess was the life giving creatrix and regenerator of
the world and the essence of the generating force that seeds new life. While her name
may have altered in the various areas, along with that of her consort/lover/child, the
myths and rituals which formed a major force in forming the ancient cultures would
become manifest in a consciousness and a spiritual awareness. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M.A. (Language and Culture)
