Author0.0Based on 0 reviews
Description
Inman argues that Christian symbolism descended directly from pagan mystery religions, tracing the Eucharist and the cross through ancient Assyrian and Egyptian ritual, challenging Victorian certainties about religious originality. This scholarly provocation uses archaeological evidence to demonstrate how cultures absorb and repurpose the sacred symbols of those they displace.
