This unique convergence has played a pivotal role in shaping the rich history, culture, language, and the very essence of their homeland, Kurdistan.Sh�maran is the significant religiocultural symbol, serving as a poignant embodiment of this heritage. The book meticulously documents, deconstructs and interprets Sh�maran's myth and her Neolithic image, recognizing their profound significance as manifestations of the Mother Earth Goddess.The study details the philosophy and symbolism of her faith, deciphers the content in the region within the existing pre-Islamic Kurdish religions namely Alevism, Yarsanism, and �zidism and Kurdish culture as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47773292953751,"sku":"9781498591270","price":3094.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781498591270.webp?v=1777978652","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/shamaran-the-neolithic-eternal-mother-love-and-the-kurds-9781498591270","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
