Goddess carving

more_vert

According to Jo Mays book 'fogou' the carving is of a healing god, a carved figure holding a spear or staff whatever it may be and a serpent entwined around his other arm.The carving is there but its vague!.Best viewed from the fogou's interior, the shadows help identification easier.

Never known it to be viewed a 'goddess' carving though, the fogou has connections with Goddess worship though, through its use by local pagans i knew of when i lived in Cornwall.

Read the book if you can get it, if not you can have my copy....
