520    "This book examines ancient figurines from several world 
       areas to address recurring challenges in the 
       interpretation of prehistoric art. Sometimes figurines 
       from one context are perceived to resemble those from 
       another. Richard G. Lesure asks whether such resemblances 
       play a role in our interpretations. Early interpreters 
       seized on the idea that figurines were recurringly female 
       and constructed the fanciful myth of a primordial 
       Neolithic Goddess. Contemporary practice instead rejects 
       interpretive leaps across contexts. Dr. Lesure offers a 
       middle path: a new framework for assessing the relevance 
       of particular comparisons. He develops the argument in 
       case studies that consider figurines from Paleolithic 
       Europe, the Neolithic Near East, and Formative 
       Mesoamerica"--|cProvided by publisher.
