Description

Religious beliefs and practices, which permeated all aspects of life in antiquity, travelled well-worn routes throughout the Mediterranean. New gods encountered in foreign lands by merchants and conquerors were often taken home to be adapted and adopted. This collection of essays offers a comparative perspective on this complex spiritual world.
