Note 103 — Chapter II · THEORY OF THE HORDE AND MOTHER-RIGHT

Starcke, Primitive Family, 246. On the Amazon myth see Bachofen, Das Mutterrecht, xxiv ff., 85. For many examples of amazonism noticed in the work see Index at "Amazonen;" and compare Giraud-Teulon, Mariage et la famille, 302-28, who accepts the view of Bachofen and gives an elaborate discussion. According to Kovalevsky, Mod. Customs and Ancient Laws of Russia, 16 ff., there are evidences of amazonism found among the Slavs. Compare Stricker, "Untersuchungen über die kriegerischen Weiber," Archiv für Anthropologie, V; and his Amazonen in Sage und Geschichte.
