When Gal Gadot was asked by a reporter about how she would get Wonder Woman's breasts from the comics, she answered, "Wonder Woman is Amazonian, and historically accurate Amazonian women actually had only one breast. So, if I'd really go 'by the book,' it'd be problematic." (Amazonian warriors would sever their right breast in order to fire a bow and arrow.) Gadot practiced Kung Fu, kick-boxing, sword fighting, jiu-jitsu, and capoeira as part of her physical preparation for the role. There is no historical record to prove that Amazon women had a breast removed. If that were the case, then statues or carvings would have been found with a missing right breast. Other translations of Amazon means "large breasted" or "without husband" rather than "without breast". Check the Etymology of the word Amazon for further details. The idea of Amazonian woman severing a breast for the sake of being better with a bow and arrow comes from the historical fiction novel "The Last of the Amazons" by Steven Pressfield.
