New findings point to a subterranean goddess worshipping cult
Archaeologists have uncovered ancient inscriptions carved into the walls of a cave in Valencia, Spain that point to the cult of an unknown or as yet unidentified goddess.
Among the discoveries researchers have made are a small collection of votive inscriptions, which are dedicated to what appears to be a goddess referred to simply as “Domina,” which means “The Lady.” Three of those inscriptions also feature an unrecognized epithet—MALACI—which the researchers believe may describe some aspect of this mysterious goddess, possibly related in some way to the water that flows through the underground ritual space within the cave.

I’m currently reading a book about the fall and rise of the sacred feminine so this news is very relevant to my interests.
