This video is dedicated to Merlin Stone, my mother. Her research on ancient goddess and heroine folklore inspired me to revive this tale—unknown to many, yet so important for our female legacy.

Unlike my mother, I am not an anthropologist. If you have questions about her work, please have a look at these two attached links:
