    The Ever-unfolding Marriage of

    Loewenmensch and Venus of Hohle Fels

    Loewenmensch – Hohle Fels Egypt

    I want to take a moment to skip ahead several thousand years, only temporarily, just to make a point about the spread of culture, and its impact on civilization.

    It appears that in the 2nd to 3rd millennia BC, the Loewenmensch-Hohle Fels family continued to have prominent visibility and wielded immense leverage in places of power, particularly, at this point, in the royal halls of Egypt. These cousins, direct descendants of Loewenmensch and Venus: Loewenmensch (known as Sphinx of Giza), Loewenmensch (Sphinx of Senrusret III, and Loewenmensch.Hohle Fels, attained near-divine stature in Egypt during this time.

    Of course, there were kings, and emperors, and pharaohs who exerted pragmatic control over the populace – even priests who seconded these rulers and ran fiefdoms of their own. But, as the above family portrait shows, there are families who continue through time, like the Capetians, the Kahns, and the Rothschilds in different eras, who, behind the scenes, have had, and continue to have, significant impact and influence on the trajectories of civilizations.

    The Ever-unfolding Marriage of
    Loewenmensch and Venus of Hohle Fels

    Over the next 20,000 years the descendants of Leowenmensch and Venus, seeing off the last of their Neanderthal friends, and the ending of the Ice Age, expanded west and east, conjoining with other groups in the fertile valleys of Europe and along the flowing rivers of the middle East, as well as in northern Africa.

    They lived, sometimes, in huts made from the bones of the carcasses of the mammoths, their early brethren, who were also becoming extinct due to the extreme change in climate. The women shared coequally with the men in accomplishing the food gathering and preparation, if maybe not the child rearing; and the families did not reside as individual units, but coexisted in groups, giving question to the assumed timing and the previously accepted application of the designation, civil(ization).

    They did not war, as had occurred hundreds of thousands of years before, as there was plenty; though there became signs of the beginnings of individual accumulation and, perhaps, greed.

    The Honeymoon

    They honeymooned in the black forest, along the banks of the rivers; the Enz, the Kinzig, the Nagold, and the Murg. They were watched over by the vogelherd, thus safeguarding the continuation of the saga of homo sapiens.

    The Wedding Party

    The wedding party consisted of the bride attended by her friends from Willendorf; Dolni Vestonice, Moravia; and Gobekli Tepe, in Turkey. Also in attendance, from Turkey, was their mother goddess from Catal Huyuk.

    Loewenmensch was seconded by his coterie of friends from the Vogelherd.
