Summary

edit
Description
English: "Offering gifts to the goddess Main element of the Mycenean religious ritual was the procession of female worshippers towards the shrine, the temple or the altar of the seated, sometimes enthroned deity. The depiction of processions both in wall paintings and on gold seal-rings, was particularly frequent. The preserved part of a large mural composition from the palace of Thebes (14th-13th c. B.C.) shows a procession of female adorants in traditional Minoan dress. They advance magestically, holding their offerings: lillies, wild roses, a casket with jewellery, a necklace and a luxury vase perhaps filled with aromatic oil. They move in two opposite directions, perhaps towards a central female deity who receives their offerings." Text: Museum inscription. Archaeological Museum of Thebes. Boeotia, Greece.
