Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Godheden in oude en moderne natuurgodsdiensten die eeuwig vruchtbare bronnen van alles zijn. De meest archaïsche vorm van de oermoeder overstijgt alle geslachts- en andere specifieke kenmerken. In latere landbouwtradities vertegenwoordigt ze als Moeder Aarde de vruchtbaarheid.
