From
the Realm of the Ancestors

Ancestors, edited
by Joan Marler, is an extensive anthology in honor of Gimbutas.
Over sixty contributors range from archaeologists to linguists
to geneticists to artists, poets, and ritual makers. Reading
it, I was struck by both the depth and scope of her knowledge
and the broad spectrum of people she influenced. Joan Marler
has done an enormous job collecting, arranging, editing and framing
this amount of material. I (Starhawk) am proud to have an article
in it myself. The book is published by:
