Summary:"There is a continuity of a cohesive system of symbols and patterns from the Paleolithic and the Neolithic that survives in present-day imagery. This continuity is evident in the analysis of popular art, mythology, and rituals of Eastern Europe, as well among the Indigenous peoples across in the Americas. This continuity suggests that these civilizations are historically closely related; they have common symbolic and mythological roots, and these patterns had special significance for the people who produced them. The understanding of commonalities underlying these seemingly distant cultures demonstrates that, despite appearances, there is more that unites us than that divides us"--
