SHEK: Hekate Triple Goddess Wall Hanging (12" x 9") This wall plaque is based on a fairly late image of Hekate, from about 200-300 C.E. However, Hekate is a pre-Titan Greek Goddess whose complex meaning has changed over time. She first appeared in Asia Minor as a Great Mother figure. About 400 B.C.E., Hekate began to be depicted as a three faced Goddess around a central pillar, associated with fertility, triplicity, & the pillar (the World-Tree). Hekate later took on aspects of the Moon Goddess & the underworld & became a patroness of the crossroads. It is perhaps from these later attributions that Hekate received her more macabre associations, such as a sinister crone, rather than a representation of Maiden, Mother & Crone & their interplay. This wall-hanging statue is made of hydrostone clay & has a stone finish, with attached wall hanger. Figure is in 3-D relief. Heavy weight.12" wide x 9" tall.
