But you are forcing me to go through it all again?
The Usenet isn't just surfing in the present, it has
a memory, a time depth, an archive maintained
by Google, accessible to everyone, also to
people without a Google account. I told you
about the thread started by Alexander Gross
on December 17, 2005: THE QUIZ... There you
can find it all, and what I said there is still valid.
I found the work by Gro Amdam and gave a link.
She says that all worker bees (of every species)
are female (genetically female), exclusively female,
and now considered to be voluntarily sterile in the
presence of a queen. The term voluntarily sterile
is by Gro Amdam, not by me, and she must know.

The bee is of interest for the PH.D., as it plays
an important role in my interpretation on the basis
of the decipherment by Derk Ohlenroth. It must
have been the holy insect of Demeter Elaia in
Phigalia, and of Elaia (Lousia) in Crete. The sign
interpreted as palanquin by Derk Ohlenroth is
in my opinion a portable beehive. The Cretan
Elaia is seen on a lovely gold ring from Mokhlos:
www.seshat.ch/home/elaia.GIF Elaia sits in
a boat whose prow turns into the head of a horse
(Poseidon in the guise of stallion), in the boat is
an olive tree, above it a giant bee flying toward
her hive on the side, accompanying Elaia. The
bee was also worshipped in the Ucraine, where
she appears as Orion goddess on an early
plaque - the little insect worhsipped in such
a large constellation ... Speaks for the bee's
importance to early agriculture.
