This unique and fascinating volume features every type of deity
from every culture in all regions of the world, from prehistory to
the present. Guide to the Gods features the familiar gods and
goddesses of the ancient Near East, as well as those of Asia,
Africa, Europe, and the Americas: deities associated with creation,
with the heavens, with the earth, with the weather, and with nearly
every aspect of human life-from love, sex, marriage, and economic
endeavors to prophecy, ritual, magic, and healing. The deities are
categorized by function and attribute, and entries are alphabetized
within each category. Every entry includes at least one citation to
a printed primary or secondary source. Guide to the Gods represents
a major contribution to the fields of anthropology, religious
studies, and folklore. Students, scholars, researchers, and writers
will find it an invaluable research tool. This work is an
entertaining and important reference source that will be a
necessary addition to public, academic, and school library
collections. A-Z entries in each category that include at least one
citation to a printed primary or secondary source
