$\"\"$ <\/a>If you\u2019re looking for a resource for information about goddesses why not go straight to the best, Patricia Monaghan? Monaghan published the first encyclopedia of divine females in 1979, and that book has stayed in print in one form or another right up to today with \u201cEncyclopedia of Goddesses & Heroines\u201d. The latest is newly expanded and features more than 1,000 heroines and goddesses from folklore, literature, and religion from around the world. The amount of information is dizzying.<\/p>\n

The \u201cEncyclopedia\u201d is broken up by region and country; South America and the Caribbean, Mesoamerica, North America, South Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, Rome, Greece, Celtic World, Pacific Island and Australia, Japan, Southeast Asia and Indonesia, India, Circumpolar North, China and Korea, Eastern Mediterranean, and Africa, and I\u2019m sure I missed some!<\/p>\n

Do you know who Uti Hiata is? How about Ececheira? What about Pidari? They\u2019re all pretty cool. I bet you\u2019d find them interesting. You know a good way to learn about them? Yep. \u201cEncyclopedia of Goddesses & Heroines\u201d.<\/p>\n

The \u201cEncyclopedia of Goddesses & Heroines\u201d is an invaluable resource, written by an undeniable expert in the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
