An unnamed goddess (Sulis?), patron of the domestic
arts) is shown mounted upon a deer. She
holds the hieroglyphic symbol of spinning and weaving (spells "cas": a bolt of cloth in the shape of a foot). Cas
(a foot) is also the Gaelic verb "to spin thread." This Petroglyph is located at site Cl-5, Lost
City, Nevada, where many other references to the spinning and weaving art
are found (Fell 1982). [Also see Petroglyph
