Kithcen massively rejected. It is very dangerous to rely on iconographic materials without accompanying inscriptions. The cult of Taanach from the tenth century does not possess images of Asherah where a naked female is associated with a lion. Instead, if it is an image of a goddess, sured it represents Qadishtu whose connections with lions is textually supported in Egypt. Compare with the compound name of the deity, Qadishtu-Astarte-Anat. Thus it is not the frequently recognized Asherah.<br /><br />The idea of consort is a precipitate procedure to more tax to be ideologically useful to the particular ideologicals climate of the moment.informadordeopiniaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06489998336259307860noreply@blogger.com
