This course considers the belief systems of 'The Fertile Crescent': its major myths and epics, ritual practices and cultic spaces, and the relationship between the 'state' and the divine. Using temple architecture, literature, private letters, and magical texts, we will also gain insight into less public belief systems, and discuss role of the supernatural in the everyday.
