Hello everyone!
The Amazons: These warrior women really existed, according to this discovery!
These warrior women on horseback could well have existed during Antiquity. In Azerbaijan, archaeologists have found graves of women buried with arrows, and having ridden horses.
For the ninth of his twelve labors, Hercules had to steal the belt of Hippolyta, daughter of Ares, the god of war, but above all queen of the Amazons. These legendary women lived without men, rode horses, shot bows, went into battle and died as heroines. Legend even has it that they cut off their right breasts in order to be better archers.
This people of powerful women, described in Greek mythology, may have really existed, as suggested by a new archaeological discovery in Azerbaijan.
The necklaces found in the tombs contained carnelian, a semi-precious stone. “It is often seen when people are high priestesses or goddesses. So it's a brand of a woman with status.”
Have a nice day and good game ;)
