Sobre IBD

Whether humans sought knowledge by applying to an oracle or whether they used soothsayers who interpreted specific signs there was a fundamental desire to know the will of the gods. This volume examines the ways in which divination linked mortals with the gods, and places the practice within the ancient socio-political and religious environment.
