A Short Summary
The Amazons were women who made a civilization without men. Their fierce, war-based lifestyle caused them to show up in many myths and legends with great wars, as well as Hercules’s labors. They are most famed for having to cut off one of their breasts so that it is easier to shoot arrows and aim, making them even deadlier. How did they keep, survive, and thrive with more women to become bloodthirsty warriors? Males weren’t allowed in the population, so they went to the next tribe over - the Gargareans - and mated. If any boys were born, they were killed or sent into the wild to fend for themselves, and if any girls were born, they were raised by their mothers in the war-like fashion. Wonder Woman was known as an Amazon, and those who trained under her were also known as Amazons.
