Divine Agency in Matters of Watchful Protection: Apotropaic Clay Plaques Depicting a Pair of Eyes from the Sanctuary of Demeter and Kore in Mytilene
More than 123 Hellenistic clay plaques recovered from the sanctuary of Demeter and Kore in Mytilene depict a temple façade and a pair of eyes. The number of eye votives recovered from this sanctuary is notable, as such a high quantity has not been discovered at any other site in the ancient Greek world. A unique feature of these votives is that they are the only known examples depicting a pair of eyes between the columns of a temple façade. This …
Rituals and Votive Offerings at the Sanctuary of Demeter in Kaunos
The sanctuary of Demeter at Kaunos is one of seven sanctuaries of Demeter in Caria. The rocky outcrops at the sanctuary of Demeter in Kaunos, which were the stages for rituals, were central elements in the celebration of festivals and rituals performed in honour of Demeter at Kaunos. Numerous votives recovered from the cavities of the rocky outcrops were a special form of votive offerings and deposition practiced at this site. The votives consist…
Greek Cults and Their Sacred Laws on Dress-code: The Laws of Greek Sanctuaries for Hairstyles, Jewelry, Make-up, Belts, and Shoes
Numerous sacred laws on dress-code dating to the Hellenistic, Roman, and Imperial periods determined the appropriate hairstyles, jewelry, adornment, and shoes for worshippers. Some of the sacred laws regulated the dress-codes for cultic officials who were less concerned by prohibitions than worshippers. The sacred laws aimed to restrict vanity, the display of personal wealth, and to prevent what was perceived as impure. This paper contributes a s…
Greek cults and their sacred laws on dress-codes: The laws of Greek sanctuaries for clothing, colour, and penalties against misbehaviour
Les inscriptions grecques sur les codes vestimentaires cultuels réglementaient le coût maximum, le tissu, la couleur des vêtements, les coiffures et les bijoux autorisés dans les sanctuaires, lors des rituels et des festivals. La réglementation sur les vêtements cultuels visait à renforcer l’expérience religieuse partagée plutôt qu’à afficher la richesse et la vanité qui peuvent se manifester par des vêtements, des bijoux et des coiffures. Certai…
The Significance of Money for the Cults and Sanctuaries of Demeter and Kore: The Shaping of the Cults by Commercial Transactions
The monetarization of the markets accelerated in the 5th century BCE led to the monetarization of the cults. The mercantile logic and money-oriented society shaped the transaction between the worshippers and the cults of Demeter. The relationship to deities was regulated by ‘do ut des’, i.e. one gives something so that the deity may give something in return. The epigraphic sources from the 5th and 4th centuries BCE give insight into the finances …
