Abstract:
Analysis of European 'Venus' figurines suggests they were part of a system through which communication was achieved by adherence to a set of stylistic rules. The appearance of items showing widespread stylistic similarity is thought to correspond with specialized environments that required open interaction networks. Some implications of the means by which information was organized in such systems and their bearing on questions of cultural/social evolution are indicated. The premise is that the figurines were made for general display and could be seen by anyone at any time. Au(adp). (These figurines are also examined by Patricia C Rice, J Anthropol Res, 37, 1981, 402-14, to see whether they represent 'motherhood' or 'womanhood'.)
