#aotd#cybele is agender and goes by they/them, so that's a no 🙂‍↕️

i'm not totally convinced that the ancients really had the same concept of gender as we do. perhaps some of them did, but it wasn't a widely known or liked position

Patriarchy says the figure on the right is not a goddess and is simply art for art's sake. It's dated to around 6000 BC at Catalhoyuk. On the left Cybele, 259 km away dated 325 AD.

This is another madrileño monument that I missed during our first visits, although I used to pass through this plaza quite a few times.

DYK consorts of #MagnaMater, #Cybele, pledged #SexualPurity? Her priests—galli—#castrated themselves, penis as well as testicles & #CrossDressed as women. Like cinaedi, gallus became a term of ridicule for #passive or #effeminate men. Ghosts of #QueerHistory still haunt.

☀️ History Fact of the Day: The cult of Cybele came to Rome during the Second Punic War (218-201 BCE) when a sacred black meteorite symbolizing her was brought from Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey).

Women ruled ancient Turkey and there is a lineage of the goddess Cybele that we ignore. It's obvious the earlier version is on the right from the matriarchy of Catalhöyük 6000 BC.

RELIEF WITH ARCHIGALLUS, 250-300 CE. MUSEO OSTIENSE

This relief shows the chief seer or archigallus of the state cult of Cybele, the Magna Mater. It comes from the necropolis of Portus on Isola Sacra, the island of the dead that lies between the two mouths of the Tiber. Though he has traditionally been seen as the head of the cult, more recent research tends to assign him a prophetic role. He is the "chief rooster", whereas ordinary galli, "roosters", were more like capons, as they were eunuchs, emulating the act of devotion of Attis, the goddess' consort, who emasculated himself. Whereas in Phrygia, the land around Troy where the cult originated, the galli were full priests, the Romans marginalised these "fanatical devotees" who lived on the fringes of the faith, lived by begging, and carried the statue of the goddess in processions. The archigallus was not a eunuch. Here we see him making an offering to a statue of Cybele at upper left. He's wearing a toga contabulata and a crown decorated with two reclining figures.

SARCOPHAGUS LID WITH PROCESSION OF THE MAGNA MATER, C. 350 CE. CLOISTER OF S. LORENZO FUORI LE MURA

This huge sarcophagus lid front is missing its sarcophagus but we can surmise it was a large one, perhaps for two of the priests of the cult (sacerdotes maximi) or of an archigallus or chief seer. This is a specific procession, part of the cultic calendar of the Magna Mater. It took place on one of the central festivals of the faith, the Hilaria, on 25 March, a joyful feast celebrating the rebirth of the goddess' consort Attis, during which her effigy was brought out of her Palatine temple in a procession that crossed the city. Here we see, at right, the effigies of the Magna Mater and Victory being carried out on litters, with trumpeters and celebrants in a crowd. After the tabula are two priests, then four elephants, each being ridden by a male figure. They are pulling an elaborate cart which probably bore an image of reborn Attis, but the corner is broken off.

#SarcophagusSaturday reminds us that #Christianity didn't take over #Rome right away. This #sarcophagus lid from about 25 years after #Constantine began building his basilicas shows a merry festival of #Cybele, the #MagnaMater, celebrating the #resurrection of her consort #Attis. #AncientBluesky 🏺

RELIEF WITH A PRIEST OF CYBELE, C. 130 CE. CENTRALE MONTEMARTINI

Cybele, the Magna Mater, was perhaps the first Eastern cult brought to Rome and integrated with traditional Roman religion. A Phrygian goddess, her cult was brought to Rome in 204 BCE as part of a specific strategy aimef at reinforcing Rome's Trojan origins. Her temple on the Palatine hill, close to the hut of Romulus, underlined this link: she was seen as an ancestral deity linked to the Penates, and given a priesthood overseen by the state. This relief from Velletri shows a sacerdos maximus, responsible for public ceremonies and processions. The half-figure of the priest is recessed into the marble rather than protruding from it. He wears an exotic costume akin to female dress, including earrings. These feminine attributes derive from an association of the priesthood with the cult of Attis, the follower and consort of Cybele, who emasculated himself and often appeared in women's garb. The priest wears an elaborate crown and bears a basket of fruit in one hand and a pomegranate, symbol of rebirth, in the other.

For #ReliefWednesday, we're visiting an exhibition on the #Palatine in #Rome dedicated to the #MagnaMater, #Cybele. Here we see one of her priests, proudly dressed in female garb and surrounded by ritual objects. This exotic cult, apparently so un-Roman, was a state religion. #AncientBluesky 🏺
