I finally got the authors name in the text, it was a trial, I got this by email.

Now getting back to a ealier thread that I ran. If Hera and Aphodite are Minoan rather than Greek gods, was the dude sacrificed, in Crete, offered up to Hera and Aphodite or some other unknown god.

Will someone, please explain the Bulls head in Minoan, art and its parrel in Egyptian and Anatolian art?

That it is there, or that it means something?

You're kidding, right? They wouldn't do that, would they?

"That's no goddess that's a demon from hell."

Hey, cut her some slack...she has been buried underground for the last 5000 years. And it looks like the shovel hit her in the face a few times during the dig out process.
