Talk:Baubo

Untitled
The Womans Dictionary of Symbols and Sacred objects is full of innaccuracies. Should the article really include information from it? Asarelah 04:49, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. The entry seems to be describing one of many of types of baubo figurine she's also depicted as a plump woman holding her vulva open with one hand or a figure riding a boar with a harp. Pryderi 12:44, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Glad to see that someone else agrees with me. I'm removing the stuff from The Woman's Dictorary of Symbols and Sacred Objects. Asarelah 23:16, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I've made a first stab at expanding this article. There are number of of other pieces of information to put in like the section describing the Baubo myth in Clement of Alexandria's Exhortation to the Greeks. I assume this is not contravening wikipedia standards? Pryderi 22:35, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds perfectly fine to me. Asarelah 03:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thats about all I can do to this page. How does one get it reviewed to take off the cleanup tag? Pryderi 12:33, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I've removed the cleanup tag as there seem to have been no further comments on the page. Any objections? Pryderi 12:58, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

"Below her breast"?
What an interesting translation for vulva. Because kolpos is what C. of Alexandria writes. Richiez (talk) 23:09, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
