They’re Warriors with Great Names, the Mythological History of the Amazons
Podcast: Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology RetoldPublished On: Tue Mar 30 2021
Description: The incredible women of the Amazons exist in myth and history, even if their myths tend to revolve around certain Greek heroes. Otrera, Hippolyta, Antiope, Penthesilea... CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.Sources: The Amazons by Adrienne Mayor; Homer's Iliad, translated by Caroline Alexander, another translated by Richard Lattimore; Theoi.com entries on Otrera, Penthesilea, and the Amazonian nymph Harmonia.Attributions and licensing information for music used in the podcast can be found here: mythsbaby.com/sources-attributions.
