The paper will discuss cultural and spiritual values which have formed around the uterus through the ages. The time period of the research comprises Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, the European Middle Ages, the Modern Age and the Enlightenment with an extension into recent times. The main questions which the paper seeks to answer are related to cultural, spiritual as well as physical values of the uterus. What led to the spiritual and cultural superiority of the uterus over other parts of the female body from Antiquity until the 18th century? How was the value of the uterus in Central Europe influenced by the advent of Christianity? How did its value develop after the introduction of scientific medical methods? How is the value of the uterus perceived by today’s female respondents? The conference paper attempts to answer all of these questions. ER -
