DID YOU know your star sign is embedded in the palm of your hand? This book reveals the 12 signs of the zodiac were originally hand symbols and evidence suggests they were being used by storytellers an astonishing 35,000 years ago. Despite the huge influence astrology has had on literature and art since Classical times, there is no written record of the hand symbols. The secrets revealed in this book would seem to have been lost for thousands of years.The symbols seem to answer age-old questions of philosophers and poets. Why is Capricorn half-goat and half-fish? It’s not a combination that springs to mind. Why is Sagittarius half-man, half-horse? Stone Age Zodiac reveals simple, and surprising, explanations for these odd hybrids.And they also seem to explain famous plots from mythology. Why did Aries have a golden fleece? Why was Jupiter’s thundershield made from a goat skin? Why was he suckled by a goat?Do the hand symbols finally solve the mystery of the armless figurines which have baffled archaeologists for centuries? Everywhere prehistoric man lived he left behind carvings of a goddess with a small head, tiny arms and large breasts. The female hand symbol for Virgo has these three features. Were the carvings copies of the hand sign?Stone Age Zodiac claims the main plots of Classical Age mythology stemmed from visual puns based on the hand symbols and other features of the hand. It identifies the same Stone Age humour behind Saturn’s Golden Age and a phosphorescent witch from African folklore. Easy to read and nicely illustrated, Stone Age Zodiac claims the hand symbols were created by a woman living in what we now call Africa more than 90,000 years ago and that she buried within the symbols a message for today from the Stone Age.
