She coined the term Dominator Culture to describe the conflict between an Androcracy (governance of social organization dominated by males) versus what she proposes was a partnership model (as distinct from Matriarchy ) for the social organization of ancient cultures. To support the idea that neither men nor women dominated one another in the distant past, Eisler cites archaeological evidence from southeast Europe, especially Crete , drawing much from the research of Marija Gimbutas and V. Gordon Childe . Her hypothesis also relies strongly on the Gnostic Gospels and on the history portrayed by the ancient poet Hesiod . BOOKS
