No title (Boca de la libertad)

Research brief

Tentative conclusions of this research can be made about the social, political and religious beliefs in this image. The fusion of the lettering as deity manifestations in the image made with the earliest photography technology, suggests the belief of the religious to ensure the success of the society.

This contemporary research suggest that at the earliest times of humanity, the society may have been more matriarchal rather than patriarchal as suggested by Johann Jakob Bachofen (1815-1887): «Matriachate or gynaecocracy found among tribal peoples, where authority in both the family and the tribe was in the hands of the women, was to be associated with the worship of a supreme female earth deity».
