El relato de Heródoto acerca del oráculo de Zeus en Dodona identifica a las sacerdotisas con palomas. La lengua femenina se caracteriza de este modo como "cotorreo" que no es comprensible para los hombres griegos. Esta caracterización del lenguaje femenino en Dodona se encuadra dentro del pensamiento griego general.__________________________________Herodotus' short description of the
oracle of Zeus at Dodona mentions the
priestesses as doves. The language of
women is then associated with animalistic
cries, which Greek men are unable to
understand. This characterization of
women's language at Dodona is compatible
with the general view at the time.
