Topic: Pashupati


In the News (Thu 23 May 13)

  
  The horned God in India and Europe
Pashupati is the Horned God of the Indus Valley, of the great Harappan city culture that developed from a village culture approximately 6000 years ago, in northern India and what is now Pakistan.
Although Pashupati is holding nothing which indicates an association with fertility, he does display an erect penis, a symbol of what must, at least in part, be his association with fertility.
Pashupati's horns also share moon symbolism and in the later form of Shiva, Goddess symbolism can still be found on the head.
