	Amazons - LoveToKnow 1911
		The male children who were the result of these visits were either put to death or sent back to their fathers; the female were kept and brought up by their mothers, and trained in agricultural pursuits, hunting, and the art of war (Strabo xi.
		It is conjectured that the Amazons were originally the temple-servants and priestesses (hierodulae) of this goddess; and that the removal of the breast corresponded with the self-mutilation of the galli, or priests, of Rhea Cybele.
		Another theory is that, as the knowledge of geography extended, travellers brought back reports of tribes ruled entirely by women, who carried out the duties which elsewhere were regarded as peculiar to man, in whom alone the rights of nobility and inheritance were vested, and who had the supreme control of affairs.

	A BURIED PROMISE: THE PALUS JEFFERSON PEACE MEDAL
		The Palus suspension hole is slightly square, probably because a machine-cut nail (popularly called a square nail) was used to punch the hole.

		The Palus material still held by WSU, including human remains and artifacts, is clearly subject to the provisions of NAGPRA; the status of the peace medal is unclear.
