| The Syrian Goddess
De Dea Syria, by Lucian of Samosata
by Herbert A. Strong and John Garstang[1913]
Lucian of Samosata's De Dea Syria, (the Syrian Goddess) is one of the most 'notorious' classical writings. Not only does it acknowledge that at one time a paramount Goddess was worshipped in regions of the Ancient Near East, it goes into details of the practices of her devotees which later generations considered reprehensible. |
