Description

Explore the complex systems of ancient religions through this scholarly study by De Gruyter. This book examines how divine names serve as fundamental keys to understanding how gods were conceived, characterized, and organized across the ancient Mediterranean. By studying the names given to various deities, readers can uncover connections to specific spaces, including cities, landscapes, sanctuaries, houses, and cosmic elements. This research investigates the mental maps reflected in these names to provide new knowledge regarding the structure of pantheons and the role of human agency in cultic dimensions. This work offers fresh perspectives by looking at the intersection between naming and mapping. It is an essential resource for those interested in how divine identities were tied to the physical and imagined worlds of antiquity.
