The Lady of the Mountains is -as far as we know- the first "Catalan" with power within her community. She lived more than 3,500 years ago and was found by hikers in Coll de Nargó. Her story, full of mysteries yet to be discovered, shows that patriarchy is not a system established naturally by physiological differences and that it has not always been in force.
