Thank you for supporting handmade artistry!
The Bee as the Goddess: The honeybee has a long tradition of being worshipped and venerated as a symbol of the goddess in many ancient civilizations. Some of the oldest images of bee goddesses date back 10,000 years. For example, the Anatolian Mother Goddess wearing a Beehive styled tiara confirmed the Goddess's exalted status as a Queen Bee who ‘streams with honey' in this early society. The Bee is the only insect that communicates through dance, yet this largely forgotten trait is one of the reasons why bee imagery from antiquity has been misinterpreted according to some art historians. Many old images depict the bee goddess dancing. In The Goddesses and Gods of Old Europe, Marija Gimbutas examines imagery on artifacts from Old Europe, circa 8000 BC, and postulates that they portray the bee as a manifestation of the Mother Goddess.
