| Ouch, I really gotta butt in here. Why wouldn't a figure like this not come out of a Patriarchal society? And how do we arrive at the conclusion that our hunter-gatherer ancestors were peace loving feminists? There's not a shred of real evidence to support that. In fact, if we look at hunter gatherer societies today, we can observe violent behavior in many of them. Sorry... I'm of the opinion that many westerners have a biased desire to think their prehistory conformed to our liberal, enlightened sensibilities. But there's absolutely nothing to go on to confirm that.
