The encyclopedia of gods - Michael Jordan

From Abellio, the Roman-Celtic Tree God, to Zeus, King of the Gods in Ancient Greece, this book records the names of more than 2500 gods, both the famous and the obscure. The references span the world, from Siberia to South America, and each entry describes the relevant cult, the role of the god or goddess, and any characteristics or symbols which help in identification. The book is intended as a work of reference for students and researchers in religions, anthropology, history and archaeology, and as a source of information and distraction for browsers and crossword enthusiasts.
