This fact has been used to support the existence of a matriarchal structure in Ancient Greek society. The purpose of the article is to challenge this view, and present a new interpretation of Penelope's role in the transmission of royal power.}, publisher = {Universidad de Huelva}, title = {Penélope y el matriarcado}, author = {Reboreda Morillo, Susana}, }
