Everyone wants a piece of the Amazons - feminists, male masochists, matriarchalists, bolshie little girls with big ideas, women investigating the history of female spirituality (like me). But, if we are going to use them, we ought to know them. We need to know:
I set out for the lands where the real Amazons of Greek legend lived - the steppes of the Ukraine, Moldova and Russia, the Black Sea coast of Turkey, old Anatolia. I was determined to trace the Amazon myth to its source. In these web pages I offer you a glimpse of what I found. The full story is in my book On the Trail of the Women Warriors:
- In UK published by Constable.
- In USA published by St Martin's Press.
- Just published in Germany by Europa Verlag.
