i read myth and sexuality by jamke highwater, several times...what's fascinating is how he traces goddesshood as far back as he can and using the eventual conquering of one nation by another nation...demonstrated how the goddess became a god, demonstrating that while christians may be the current bastards on the block, they learned from even more, devastating cultures...

goddess wise, i've always liked macha



male dominance through sheer sexuality, decapatated heads on stakes and given credit over choosing those who live and die on a battle field with her crows and spears...now that's a goddess.
