In this book Stanley Porter and Gordon Heath set the muddied record straight. After first looking at the initial ballyhoo surrounding the publication of the "Gospel of Judas," they carefully set the "Gospel" in context, providing a brief history of Judas himself as seen in...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In this fresh consideration of the origins of the ancient Greeks' ideas and practices concerning their own past, Carla M.

Although it was not until the dissolution of Iron Age societies that epic poetry and organized hero cult developed to aid claims to legitimacy, practices such as visiting tombs to make offerings were common, and contradict the usual picture of Iron Age religious conservatism.
