The Woman in the Shaman's Body Quotes

“How has it happened that we’ve lost sight of this ancient woman shaman and what she represents? For despite the proof of language and artifacts, despite pictorial representations, ethnographic narratives, and eyewitness accounts, the importance—no, the primacy—of women in shamanic traditions has been obscured and denied.”
― Barbara Tedlock, The Woman in the Shaman's Body: Reclaiming the Feminine in Religion and Medicine
