A Loomweight for Herakles
The interpretation of loomweights found at ancient Greek sacred sites is confounded by their small size and mobility, raising questions about the history of their use and reuse, and whether they were deposited for ritual and/or the result of sanctuary production. This article reexamines these objects, from roughly the Archaic through Hellenistic periods, highlighting the connection between domestic labor and ritual deposition. Since textile produ…
Greek Religion and Epigraphic Corpora
The Latin phrase leges sacrae and its various translations (sacred laws, loissacrées, heilige Gesetze) have been applied since at least the nineteenth cen-tury to various collections of inscribed documents. It is a modern inventionborn out of the German Wissenschaft ideology of systematic, scientific, com-prehensive methods of inquiry. This rubric and the collecting of Greek inscrip-tions under it have always been recognized as problematically su…

The Greeks did not have specialized costumes intentionally created for exclusive use during cultic activity, but clothing did play important roles in ancient Greek religion. Clothing and accessories could differentiate cultic functionaries from participants, visually communicate social and cultic standing, and underscore the importance of ritual propriety. Dress was part of the lived religious experience of a worshipper, and textiles and other dr…

Cult clothing, Greek
The Greeks did not have specialized costumes intentionally created for exclusive use during cultic activity, but clothing did play important roles in ancient Greek religion. Clothing and accessories could differentiate cultic functionaries from participants, visually communicate social and cultic standing, and underscore the importance of ritual propriety. It also became a part of ritual action when dedicated to a deity.
The Sacred Law of Andania
The inscribed text referred to as the sacred law of Andania contains almost 200 lines of regulations about a mystery festival and the sanctuary in which it took place. This book presents a new edition of the inscription and examines its rules in the wider context of Greek religious law and the management of sacred space. The regulations touch on a range of issues including finance, pollution, and the role of women, so that this study can be used …
The Athenian Calendar of Sacrifices
Presented here is the editio princeps of a new fragment of the late-5th-century B.C. Athenian calendar of sacrifices. The fragment, Agora I 7577, was discovered during excavations conducted in the Athenian Agora by the American School of Classical Studies. Inscribed on both faces (Face A: 403-399 B.C., Face B: 410-404 B.C.), it is associated with, but does not join, the group of fragments of Athenian legal inscriptions often referred to as the La…
