There is a possibility that women were largely responsible for developing very early Neolithic philosophical ideas in Northern Europe: There doesn't appear to be any direct evidence to show who did the thinking.

When we did the research into the geocentric hypothesis, one of the evidence trails appeared to suggest that women may have held central roles. That's why the 2011 novel describes women in the central authority roles and also why the 2013 non-fiction book features women performing the philosophical checking tasks.

But there wasn't enough interest in the central hypothesis, so nothing was done to develop the reasoning behind that secondary hypothesis.
