Pilgrimage in Graeco-Roman and Early Christian Antiquity: Seeing the Gods
Elsner
The essays in this volume examine the range of pilgrimage practices in Graeco-Roman antiquity and the early Church. From healing to oracles, from collective civic delegations to individual pilgrims seeking salvation, from localized sacred topographies to empire-wide travel, this book shows the importance of pilgrimage in pagan antiquity and its ancestry to later Christian practice.
