About this audiobook
Almost single-handedly, through her excavations and discovery of artifacts and remnants from European cultures predating both Egyptian and Greek civilization, the late Marija Gimbutas revamped both history and the field of archaeology. Here she speaks about the thousands of Goddess-related figurines she unearthed, pointing to the existence of peaceful European cultures that existed for millennia prior to 1500 B.C.E.
