Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Three Mother Goddesses - geograph.org.uk - 295770.jpg |
English: The Three Mother Goddesses Set in a niche in the wall of St.Martin's church is this curious replica of the three mother goddesses Roman sculpture discovered in 1831 whilst digging a new grave, the original resides in Grantham Museum. The sculpture is 1ft 7ins long and 1ft 4ins high showing three seated figures depicting the Romano-Celtic Mother Goddess in triple form representing the three aspects of the one divinity, similar to the holy trinity. The three goddesses are seated on a long couch with upright sides and back, all appear to be pregnant and wear long dresses gathered up under the bust. Looking at the sculpture, the figure on the right holds a loaf of bread and a corn measure, the central figure holds a shallow basket of fruit and the left-hand figure holds a dish with piglet and a 'patera' (bowl) in her right hand. The Roman station of Causennae was established here as early as 43AD although the date of the sculpture is unknown it is undoubtedly Roman. |
