Ancient Goddess Culture

Ancient Goddess Culture

Chris Sitka has been presenting on the Ancient European Goddess Cultures for decades, and will be joining Womenspace on Friday 31 July at 7pm, with a slide show presentation based on investigation into the women centred and Mother Goddess revering, pre-historic cultures of Old Europe.

You will see archaeological images, including goddess figurines and other artefacts, which evidence a long lived culture which truly revered women. The interpretation will explain evidence for a peaceful and egalitarian social structure and a spiritual culture including ceremonies, dances, ritual costumes, symbols and sacred objects - bringing this ancient tradition to life.

The archaeological evidence throws light on how and when men took temporal and spiritual power away from women and established the patriarchal structure we now live under. One which is based in power, hierarchy, war, cruelty, income inequality, and repression; which replaced the long lived harmonious peaceful and co-operative society of the pre-patriarchal era.

In the presentation Chris also elaborates on how she shared this evidence from her own European indigenous traditions with Australian Aboriginal Women elders and how, together, they drew startling parallels between our two spiritual traditions.
