The carved images on the early Minoan sealstones are tantalising, inscrutable. The Nature Goddess is yanked from the soil like a snake or a sheaf of barley; the Mistress of the Animals suckles goats and gazelles.

No woman worth her salt, one might think, could fail to be intrigued.

Strength is not in her, but she enacts it as the wind fills a sail.
