The Civilization of the Goddess

The Civilization of the Goddess is a theory that suggests early human societies were matriarchal, centered around goddess worship, emphasizing harmony, nurturing, and community. It proposes that ancient cultures revered female deities, guiding social, spiritual, and political life before patriarchal systems became dominant. This perspective highlights the importance of female principles in shaping civilization’s moral and cultural foundations. While debated, it encourages re-examining historical narratives about gender roles, power, and societal development, fostering a broader understanding of humanity’s diverse spiritual and cultural origins.
