Lilith... The Lilith myth crops up all over the place. That there was a woman, a true woman, before Eve, who offended Adam and god and was replaced by a woman born of man instead. Some myths say that the first human was Adam/Lilith joined, back to back, four arms and four legs; some say Lilith is cursed never to touch the Earth again, that she possesses women-born-of-man at the height of the menstrual cycle and then they become true women, that she was the snake in Eden.
