Before the book
#9
RE: Before the book
Nobody actualy really knows what the epic cave paintings in France represent.


But I, even as a usualy very rational individual draw the conclusion after seeing the Venus of Willendorf that it represents a Ideal.
The ideal that men had for women in that era, that in a time in which foos was scarce a "perfect" woman should be fat and have big tits.

And whereever a sociaty builds concepts of Ideal and perfect things, religious beliefs arent far away.

It`s the biggest advantage of living in Europe, that you can see history for yourself.
