Mysterious Ancient Female Society Discovered – What Happened To All The Men? Archaeologists Wonder
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - Drawing from archaeological, anthropological, and historical evidence, scientists confidently assert that the influence of powerful women extends back to prehistory. While a full-fledged matriarchal state has not been documented, matriarchal families likely existed.
The concept of matricentric—families centered around the mother—is prevalent in most cultures. Furthermore, matriarchal societies have been identified globally, with origins possibly rooted in East Asia and spreading via waterways as agricultural communities emerged.
Evidence suggests that these matriarchal structures date back to the Paleolithic era and became more complex during the Neolithic Age with the rise of agriculture. Remarkably, such societies still exist today; notable examples include the Mosuo in China, the Minangkabau in Indonesia, the Umoja tribe in Kenya, and the Khasi in India.
Recent excavations have unveiled an unusual female-dominated society that challenges traditional views. While Copper and Bronze Age cultures were considered male-dominated, new findings reveal a mysterious female society that expelled all men.
This discovery prompts compelling questions: Why did they expel males? What happened to the males? Can insights from an ancient neighboring society shed light on this enigma?
These revelations not only reshape our understanding of gender roles throughout history but also invite us to explore deeper into human societal evolution. It is time to ponder an ancient mystery that may not be easily solved.
