Opis

"Ophiolatreia," or "Serpent Worship," is one of the finest academic texts of the late 1800s. Not content to speak only of one time or culture, it delves into Hinduism, Druidism, Greek lore, the Roman Empire, Egypt ancient and then-modern, and Mesoamerica, and details a multitude of serpent-related rites, ruins, and religions therein. Invaluable to the academic and interesting to the occultist, the scope of this work is vast and its sources frequent and intricate. It lays bare the lore of a dozen ancient cultures and, in many cases, their modern counterparts, exposing the worldwide and constant prevalence of serpent worship which in some areas continues to this very day.
