Description: " The Language of the Goddess ". By Marija Gimbutas, forward by Joseph Campbell 1991. Harper Collins, New York: NY. 11 by 9.25 by inch. Softcover, 416 pages. Author Marija Gimbutas was the Professor of European Archaeology at UCLA. Her research regarding early (especially pre-Christian) European history, culture, mythology and custom broke new ground. Especially with consideration towards the place of Old Goddesses and Gods in pre Christian European belief. This big book is 416 pages long and includes numerous photos, illustrations and diagrams. See all 24 pics for examples, THIS is an excellent work not to be missed by any person with an interest in human development or Europe in particular. This volume differs from "The Civilization of the Goddess" by being more focused on the meaning of symbols and meaning in the art, including characters which may have formed a language. Nice color section in the front of the book! What stood out to me was how similar we humans are in early development around the world and across cultures. This really is an excellent book which will be cherished by any artist, student of human development, European history, or practitioner of European Pagan traditions. Thank you for looking!
