>>Mysterious ancient human society was run by a ‘female elite’
>And that is why they disappeared.
Yep. Most civilization seem to have female rulers right before they’re conquered or collapse internally. Funny now that I think about, but Hillary Clinton would have probably been the last president of the United State of America if she’d won. There wouldn’t be a country left by the time her term was over.
Give them obsidian blades and you'll find out.
I’ve always suspected that Raquel Welch was of Chacoan ancestry.
Agreed.
People from County Kerry are targeted with jokes of the blonde joke or Texas Aggie joke variety...at least they were when I was in Ireland.
Just me... I don’t want to live in a stone mansion and be dominated by an ancient elite female.
...but Laz might!
The snu snu episode. Me and the kids got a big laugh out of that one!
The Jews only became matrilineal as the Diaspora; as a cohesive nation, they were patrilineal. Read the Bible.
It is an unfortunate commentary on both the uncertainties they suffered and the immoralities they indulged as exiles as they became increasingly atheistic (despite their superficial adherence to tradition).
Look at the typical “Jew” today: atheist, leftist, amoral.
Spare me the indignation: I took Hebrew class with a room full of Jews; they were all the above except for the teacher herself. I, the Gentile, and the teacher, an Israeli, were the only ones who knew anything about the Bible, and the only ones who did not subscribe to a vulgar and hedonistic lifestyle. Most of them had lived in a commune (kibbutz), and many of them were promiscuous.
(By the bye, my mother is part Jew. She, my siblings, and I would all have fried in Germany circa 1944. But she is a Christian, as was her very Jewish forbear - what they would now call a Messianic Jew.)
“Me want snu snu”.
I thought Navajo society was also matriarchal? Perhaps the people just moved a few miles?
Yeah. So? Oh I see, we have to fight the patriarchy. /s
With no written records from people, they make inferences for what many things meant, socially, back then, using what we think certain things mean today; but they are totally guessing on MANY things - like matriarchy, but don’t really have facts, just their inferences.
A ‘female elite’ for the administration of a society doesn’t surprise me. The men would likely have been busy hunting and gathering, or farming to keep folks in groceries!
Love that you recognized it!

Actually I've head the reason they went out of business was climate change combined with a psychosis brought on by eating only corn...
