The Cults of Cisalpine Gaul As Seen in the Inscriptions by Joseph Clyde Murley is a scholarly work that examines the religious practices and beliefs of the ancient Celtic tribes that inhabited the region of Cisalpine Gaul, which is now modern-day northern Italy. The book focuses on the inscriptions found on various artifacts, such as altars and tombstones, that provide insight into the cults and deities worshipped by these tribes. The author analyzes the language, symbolism, and iconography used in the inscriptions to uncover the meaning behind the religious practices of the Celts. He also explores the cultural and historical context of the region, including the impact of Roman conquest and influence on the local beliefs. The book is divided into chapters that cover specific cults and deities, such as the cult of Apollo and the goddess Epona. Each chapter provides a detailed analysis of the inscriptions related to the cult or deity, as well as a discussion of the significance of the cult in the wider context of Celtic religion. Overall, The Cults of Cisalpine Gaul As Seen in the Inscriptions offers a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the religious practices and beliefs of the ancient Celts, shedding light on a fascinating and often overlooked aspect of European history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
