That there is no head on this figurine is extremely significant, and tends to lead me to believe that it's not a totem of female equality, but just the opposite. A headless figure is a figure that's been stripped of it's individuality.

By our modern standards, anyway...


I realise Ms Willendorf 25,000 bc has an average sized head but headless , footless , armless , seems more typical.
