I don't know what the third book you mention is.

That's the only one I'm familiar with (The Goddesses etc.). I've browsed
it through many years ago, and can't recall there being anything on the
Vinèa script.

Another error in this thread, which is an exchange of remarks between
guys who don't know M. Gimbutas' work!...
The book "Gods and Goddesses of Old Europe", edited in 1974, has been
one of the first written by M. Gimbutas. It has been reedited in 1982,
with some revisions, under the title, this time, of : "The Godesses and
Gods of Old Europe". A bit confusing, of course, for those who are not
familiar with M. Gimbutas' work !..
Both books deal, of course, with the Vinça Script, even if this
denomination is not explicitely used by M. Gimbutas. In the book "The
Godesses and Gods of Old Europe", one has just to look, for instance at
the map of the "Vinça Civilization" on p. 23, to be convinced that M.
Gimbutas talk in fact of what other scholars have called "the Vinça
Script"...
