Various sacred breast shaped hills across the world |
The prehistoric world primarily being matriarchal and/or matrilinear was carpetted under the now defunct fertility cult.
Traces of this ancient civilisation can be still seen in several tribal cultures across the world in places like in China, India, Africa etc. Several shapes of mountains resembling recumbent pregnant women were held to be sacred landscape figures even worshipped as Recumbent Mother Goddess forms.
Breast and vulvas were regarded sacred being representative of the ubiquitous Mother Goddesses: appendages of the fecundity cult.
The world comprises of several natural breast shaped hills which being appendages of the fertility cult of the Mother Goddesses were once very sacred for the the ancients.
Many megaliths have been placed in alignment to such hills.
The Punkri Burwadh megalithic site in Jharkhand state of east India is cradled between two breast shaped Amjhori hills oriented to the East-West (Fig 6).
Mams Tor is a Mother Hill in England. Maithan or the Breast of the Mother is a famous hill in Jharkhand on the Jharkhand-Bengal border of east India (Fig 10).
Below are a few photographs of such breast shaped hills of around the world including that of India which were the accessories of the prevalent fecundity cult of the Mother Goddesses.
These hills therefore were held very sacred by the Mother Goddess worshippers during prehistoric times.
