The shrine of Eileithyia, Minoan goddess of childbirth and motherhood at the Inatos cave in southern Crete /
:
"This volume is a catalog of the ancient Egyptian imports and Egyptianizing artifacts found in 1962 during the excavation of a cave near Tsoutsouros (ancient Inatos), Crete, Greece. The cave was a sanctuary dedicated to the Minoan and Greek goddess Eileithyia, patron of childbirth and motherhood. The Aegyptiaca of the Minoan-Mycenaean era on Crete were a tangible sign of the political and economic relations between the Aegean rulers and the Egyptian royal court.

The statuettes, seals, and vessels are lavishly illustrated with plates of color photographs"--
