RE: Self portraits or fertility symbols? Venus figurines of Upper-Paleolithic Eurasia [NUDITY]

in #science8 years ago

Great consideration and perspective! Thank you for sharing. I also thought there were philosophical consideration in this matter that brought about, as another reason, why the statues were built in the way they are.

 The female figure and their proportion have a direct relation to the importance the ancestors had for the creation of life, therefore the female body as the prime example in a human form. By giving veneration to the life giving powers of the female body parts such as the belly, for giving birth, and the breasts, for nourishing life and sustaining its feeble beginnings, they also emphasized the size of it to show their importance.

 Thanks again for your posting and namaste   :)

Thanks so much @eric-boucher. I'm happy to share this information on steemit. Your photography is exceptional, and I'm honored to have you comment here. edit:spelling

I'm so glad you enjoyed the photography and most hopefully the text as well!?! :) I'm wondering if you could see all the pictures or not and if you "upvoted" it as well? I've had some issues over the past week as my blog seemed to have been corrupted somehow... Thanks for the compliment too, it is very appreciated. Namaste :)

Hello. So many of the photos on your posts do appear as the flying saucer, so there seems to be a problem somewhere. As for your text , cards on the table I did not read it yet, but am doing so right now during my break at work. Upvoting, too :)

Here's to the upcoming weekend on steemit!

Thanks a bunch for letting me know and, of course, for the upvote as well. I think I might have gotten hacked somehow... Well, it is a very young web site after all and hope this whole thing will come to an end as I want to post more travelog and quite a few more post of all kinds. Keep taking good care and your smiles, namaste :)
