Returning from the Place of the Gods, Mount Rushmore, where she learned the great secret that the Ancient Ones were Men, the priestess Meg must now face the judgment of her tribeswomen.

Nelson S. Bond's 1940 story continues his post-apocalyptic Meg saga. Vivid, imaginative golden-age SF. Read it for a sequel to 'The Priestess Who Rebelled', a far-future America where women rule and men are savages, and a bold heroine who has glimpsed a forbidden truth, in a colorful, thoughtful golden-age tale of a world turned upside down.
