Well the OT bangs on about not worshipping other gods
(implicitly acknowledging their existence) so it makes
sense that a pantheon was believed in.
And where you have a pantheon of gods Man will make up
stories about their feuds and loves. And why shouldn't the
top man (Jehovah) have a mate? It would be the most
natural story to tell.

could you explain why they are ignorant?
Then we have the title of the article "Archaeologists discover: God's wife?" and this tesifies of the writers ignorance. There is no quote from any archaeologists that says the photo is a figurine of God's wife. Very misleading title from an ignorant person, in my opinion.

That is why the scripture refers to them as false gods. There is only one true God.
