This paper explores the ideological complexity of issues connected with matriarchal myth within National Socialism's view of women and motherhood by examining the controversy over the Ura-Linda-Chronik , which purported to demonstrate that the Germanic 'Urvolk' was organised along matriarchal lines. Exposed as a clear forgery soon after its publication in 1872, it was forgotten until 1933, when its republication by the 'völkisch' scholar Herman Wirth provoked a far-reaching debate on theories of matriarchy and patriarchy, masculinity and femininity in the 'völkisch' movement and on the role of women in the construction of the Third Reich
