The figure of the mother goddess is common to many cultures and she has, over the centuries, undergone substantial changes. The Making of the Goddess breaks new ground by analysing the impact of shifting socio-economic and political contexts upon the transformations.
From the seventh century ce onwards, as the state apparatus in the Tamil south expanded, it gave rise to more complex social structures. The expansion was supported ideologically through the spread of institutionalized religions, which transformed the cultural landscape. The agglomeration of the motifs, symbols and myths of cultic practices in existence from ancient times led to the growth of a syncretic goddess tradition that brought various independent female deities within the new brahmanical pantheon.
