Translation for "afro-asiatic" to spanish
Translation examples
Professor Heine-Geldern has suggested — with a magnificently organized assemblage of evidence — that this basal neolithic complex of the Far East (the place of origin of which has not been definitely fixed, though it would seem sensible to place it, provisionally at least, in the Afro-Asiatic Near East, as suggested in Section I of this chapter) reached the Pacific by way of China and Japan, then spread southward across Formosa, the Philippines, Celebes, and the Moluccas to New Guinea and Melanesia, and even touched, finally, the primitive Australians and — as shown earlier — the Andamanese. Its form of boat was the plank-boat with no outriggers, and its characteristic ground ax a roughly ovoid-cylindrical type. [Note 54] Many signs exist throughout the area of an early matriarchal social organization, with female shamans and perhaps even female rulers, while among the mythological and ritual motifs that were almost certainly associated with this Far Eastern basal neolithic complex are the immolated maiden and the fire goddess.
El profesor Heine-Geldern ha sugerido —con una colección de pruebas magníficamente organizadas— que este complejo neolítico basal de Extremo Oriente (cuyo lugar de origen no ha sido fijado definitivamente, aunque podría localizarse, por lo menos provisionalmente, en el Oriente Próximo afroasiático, como sugerimos en la sección I de este capítulo) alcanzó el Pacífico a través de China y Japón, y después se extendió hacia el sur atravesando Formosa, las Filipinas, las Célebes y las Molucas hasta Nueva Guinea y Melanesia, y por último incluso llegó a los primitivos australianos y —como vimos antes [*]— los andamaneses. Su embarcación era el bote de planchas sin batangas con su característica parte inferior de la roda de un tipo tosco ovoide-cilíndrico.[54] Por toda la zona existen muchas señales de una temprana organización social matriarcal con chamanes femeninos y quizá incluso jefes femeninos, mientras que los motivos mitológicos y rituales, que casi con toda seguridad estaban asociados con este complejo del Extremo Oriente neolítico basal, son la doncella inmolada y la diosa del fuego.
