DecimusCaesar Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I think that one of the prevailing views by archaeologists on the Venuses is that they represent a sort of 'Earth mother' Goddess. In the Neolithic temples on Malta there are several statues of large seated women to be found. Whether these have any connection to the Venuses I cannot say, but there are some strange similarities. Either way, there will never be a definite answer to the mystery, considering our Mesolithic and Neolithic ancestors left no written records.
