Amazing to imagine a time when pregnancy wasn't understood. Does Torah provide needed insight?

Female fertility was a great mystery: Women seemed to be conduits of the primal powers of nature. The connection of sexual intercourse to pregnancy wasn't established yet -- because intercourse sometimes preceded puberty and also because it takes so long for any woman to "show." No one knew why one woman got pregnant</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.salon.com/opinion/paglia/2009/07/08/reader_letters/index2.html">These statuettes were probably used in rituals to invoke the energy of mother earth.
