As I began my investigation of the Goddess in all her forms I was struck by the beauty of the artwork I encountered. From Paleo- and Neolithic times to the modern day, from East Asia to Europe and back again,
centuries worth of art has been created in the image of the Goddess. Yet what interested me the most was the application and interpretation of this art to everyday life. More specifically, I wanted to know how these images of the Goddess- wall paintings, statues, carvings, weavings- spoke to the lives of everyday women. To narrow my studies I chose an Anatolian (modern day Turkey) site named Catal Huyuk. Dating from 6400 to 5400 B.C., the findings at Catal Huyuk were absolutely mind blowing because, along with findings at Jericho in Palestine, they changed
previous concepts as to the "dawn of civilization". Sumer had held the record for the oldest evidence of large urban settlements and was
credited with the first organized religion (including a priestly class, sanctuaries, etc.). Yet the findings at Catal Huyuk changed all that and pushed the dates for civilized urban society and all its trappings back
3,000 yrs.. By using the revolutionary findings at Catal Huyuk, I then looked carefully at its art, specifically the statue seen as fig.1, above to see how it informed and reflected the lives of everyday women at Catal Huyuk. I hoped to prove that this society was matriarchal, as evidence of this would support many feminist ideas of our modern society today. Afterall, if women were able to run religion and society at some point in our long history then it seemed logical to hope that this power may once again fall into female hands. My conclusions were both
disappointing and inspiring, forcing me to reevaluate many of my
preconceived notions about Goddesses, prehistory and power structures both then and now.
As Joan Bamberger states, "...there is still no certifiable way of
documenting the political and jural relations of the earliest human societies...". This is the wall I continued to bang my head against in my search for a truthful picture of life in Neolithic Anatolia. I found myself pouring over pages and pages of wall paintings and shrine layouts wondering who the creators had been- men or women? The importance of this distinction being who had the power of definition? Did women have the freedom and power to create images depicting their own lives and experiences or did men define women through the images that they created of them? We see examples of the latter in "Goddess" images from our modern times as Ann Barstow notes, "Whether woman is depicted as sex object (Astar or Eve) or as magical virgin mother (the cult of Mary for instance) the symbol serves as a projection of male needs...". It is the possibility of different interpretations I kept in mind as I began to research Catal Huyuk and the excavations that have occurred there.
To create an accurate picture of life at Catal Huyuk one must first picture the settlement as it must have looked some 8,000 years ago.
Small, tightly packed houses, each a single room whose only entrance was from the roof by a ladder. Each house was formed of mud brick and kept incredibly clean, all evidences of trash and refuse were found neatly deposited in courtyards created specifically for that purpose. Inside each house was a sleeping platform, expansively covering the east wall with other platforms of various sizes strewn about the room.
Interestingly, there was little variation in signs of wealth or
possessions from house to house. Spread over more than 32 acres, Catal Huyuk is the largest Neolithic site discovered to date. With knowledge of weaving, stone carving, the smelting of copper and lead, basket
weaving, pottery, cloth dyeing and spinning, the people of Catal Huyuk flourished on the vast tree covered Anatolian plain. With large herds of red deer and wild cattle and a specialized knowledge of the cultivation of crops, food was abundant and nourishing. Yet the large urban
settlement is puzzling in many aspects not the least of which being its apparently high infant mortality rate. This infers a difficult labor and childbirth despite immense attention to the mother and birth giving process in Catal Huyuk's artifacts. Numerous birth shrines nave been excavated with depictions of the Goddess giving birth as well as statues such as fig.1 where the head of the child being born is visible between the Goddess' strong thighs. In studying these shrines, I came to the work of James Mellaart, the main archaeologist who headed diggings from
1961-1965. He attempted to define 'shrine' areas from 'non-shrine' areas as a means to categorize and break down the site. These initial
interpretations have since been refuted by modern scientific technology which has found traces of everyday life in all areas. This speaks to an integral worship practice which is not easily separated from the more
'secular' areas of life at Catal Huyuk. Another fascinating point, open to interpretation is the burial placement- women and some children under the large sleeping platform on the east wall of the dwelling and men and some children (though never together) under other platforms in the
house. It is the burials, layer after layer that Ian Hodder, a current archaeologist at Catal Huyuk and head of the Catal Archaeological
Project hopes to decode with DNA testing. The testing would help
determine whether these people were matrilineal of patrilineal by
examining layers of skeletons to see whether daughters of daughters of daughters had been buried in sequence or sons of sons of sons. In this way science will go a long way in helping assess the lifestyles of the Catal Huyuk people.
The difficulty in interpretation is discussed further by Ian Hodder in his e-mail correspondence with Anita Louise, an educated and interested member of the Goddess community. He comments on additions to the Catal Huyuk site such as a museum and reconstructed rooms as well as a growing Newsletter and CD Rom, all of which are created to provide information to those interested in the site. Yet Hodder comments on the reactions of some Goddess groups, "Some have said 'But we are not interested in YOUR interpretations; they are already biased; we want to make our own
interpretations.'" Yet Hodder does not deny the validity of this
complaint and agrees saying, "We cannot assume the provision of 'raw data' is enough. This is because the data are never 'raw'. The data are interpreted immediately by the archeologist." He also goes on to say,
"The Goddess community will often have a very different point of view from which archaeologists can learn." By respecting the Goddess
community, Hodder leaves open the possibility for change and new
interpretation, he includes the Goddess community of today in examining what may be the first organized Goddess community of our prehistory. And yet was Catal Huyuk a Goddess culture? Does the prevalence of Goddess or female figures in their art and religious areas prove this? And if so, how did it effect the women at that time? Those women in the large urban settlement on the Anatolian plain, did they feel the power of the
Goddess in their own lives? Did they awaken each morning with the
knowledge that they had been made in Her image and that She watched over them as her daughters?
All of these questions come to mind when staring at the small Mother Goddess that at one time was held in the hand, perhaps even carved by the hand of an Anatolian woman c. 6,000 B.C.. I want to hold her myself, rough terra-cotta, and see if she still holds the power of life, of birth. Found in a grain bin, it is argued what significance a statue such as the Mother Goddess might have to the nature of this Anatolian society. This brings me back to my initial question of who was in
charge. As I read Ann Barstow's article from "Feminist Studies", I was initially taken aback by her answer. "...Perhaps the problem lies, at least in part, in the word 'dominance,' for it is, in fact, foolish to judge this material by our common definitions of power." She then goes on to suggest that one look at ancient societies like Catal Huyuk in terms of a more cooperative use of power. I began to see the sense of this when taking into account the immense dependence on nature by these societies. Their existence was so desperately linked with the world around them that they encountered the cycle of life daily and may have been able to see it more clearly. They were a part of nature, just as their religion was a part of their homes, death and burial a part of their lives and living areas. Women specifically were the bringers of the new wealth to Catal Huyuk as the realms of agriculture, spinning and domestic life were comfortable domain for them. In this way their
position was secure in a society which valued these things above all else. This is proven again and again in the artifacts at Catal Huyuk- women giving birth, running, dancing with hair streaming out behind them, women in loving embraces and threatening poses, women majestically enthroned or abstractly bulging with life. All these images were at Catal Huyuk -despite who created them. And one can't help but believe that their human counter parts were as well.
In their correspondence about Catal Huyuk, Anita Louise offers Ian
Hodder some advice in the form of a story about a Native American who when asked how one could integrate the spiritual and everyday selves, responded by saying they were one self. The Native American then added that the person was asking the wrong question- the question they needed to be asking was how to make oneself whole again. I take my cue from this as I come to my conclusion, for what really matters is not finding evidence of a matriarchal society to perpetuate the cycle of dominance between the sexes but to find evidence of a culture with strong people, male and female, who were capable of living spiritual, whole lives. This is the underlying quest that drives me to learn- the quest for
wholeness, be it through God or Goddess- to myself.

Most people like to help others and that is a good thing, because we are surrounded by hurting people every day. They may be in your small group or Bible study, over your backyard fence or someone you meet in line at the store.
The people in your circle of influence may share with you the difficulties and trials they have going on in their lives because their burden is too heavy to bear alone. They may want counsel, or comfort, a suggestion or solution or they may just want someone to say they understand how hard life is right now.
What do we say, and how should we respond when a person entrusts us with things that are important to them? How can we help them in a meaningful way?
I am addressing this because I have seen and experienced the rather painful results of the responses of well-meaning people who think they are helping a hurting person. Some well intentioned answers can bring more pain and sorrow and add to their load of pain. Responding to someone who is hurting requires a sensitive spirit.
You must listen carefully to what the person is telling you with compassion and empathy. Let them tell their story! You may be the first person (or people) she has trusted enough to bare her soul to and your reaction to her will be important as to where she goes from there.
It is very difficult for someone in a leadership position to share anything about them self. There is the misperception that because a person is a pastor's wife, or a Bible study leader, or even a Biblical Counselor that they don't have times in life that get them down. We tend to think of these people as "above it all" and think they don't have problems. Nothing could be further from the truth! Those in the ministry have the usual problems of daily life "plus" all the care and concern of the ministry. Those in leadership are often lonely and isolated. They have often had their confidence violated by someone they trusted so naturally, they are reticent to open up to anyone.
When someone is willing to share a part of their life with you because they are in some kind of pain the natural inclination is to want to fix it or to offer them an opinion or counsel that you believe will help them. This can be a mistake.
First, ask her if she even "wants "feedback or counsel before you offer it. She may not be ready to hear counsel yet and telling her now may be a wasted effort and turn her off to you. While I don't condone "venting" as a rule, please realize that when a person chooses to unburden their heart and soul to you that is a privilege you should not take lightly. She must really trust you to share her pain with you.
If she agrees to hear your feedback or counsel I again urge you to be gentle toward her. Watch her face for non-verbal communication and if you see she is stiffening up toward what you are telling her, ask her if she wants you to continue or stop. Be sure to the best of your ability that she understands you are her friend and helper and that what you say is being said in love and be careful not to be harsh in your reply. Even if she needs a rebuke or correction, she may accept it better if you are gentle toward her even though you may have difficult things to say to her.
Many of the things we struggle to accept are related to God's sovereignty over our lives. Understanding God's sovereignty does not negate our human emotions or feelings. Talk about God's sovereignty must be balanced with God's love, otherwise it is cruelty. If you are going to give counsel about this, realize that she may have a crystal clear understanding of God's sovereignty and that she may know the Word of God very well; but it doesn't mean she does not hurt anyway! Often our emotions are in conflict with our theology and even the strongest warrior sometimes has to find a place to cry.
Please be careful not to be chiding in your tone toward the one who comes to you for comfort. She knows what she knows...and a lecture is most likely not what she needs from you at that point. I would venture to guess she knows that the place to go is the Word of God, and perhaps she has done this already... God's Word is never lacking for wisdom and it is in that very Word that we see how Paul was comforted by the people around him. He frequently notes how his misery was decreased by a visit from Timothy, or John Mark.
These things are important to keep in mind as you desire to help others in a meaningful way.
