Vedr. [evola_as_he_is] Amazons & Cynocephalism - Myths of the Dog-Man

Swasti!

I want to confine myself in commenting only one
remark, without making any statement about the
correctness of other points.

> 'Following Adam of Bremen, the theme of male

a constant in the medieval geography and

Amazons were the Cynocephali'. P61

Adam's of Bremen assertion is thought as a diatribe
against the indigenous German faith, in which the
"ulfhednar" (wolf-skins) played an important role as
members of Maennerbuende dedicated to Wotan.
They wore wolf costumes or wolf masks and were also
called "Wotan's dogs".

It seems quite evident that there were at least two competing religions at some point, one Aryan and one non-Aryan. One of them is quite nicely etched in...
