She focuses her study on three integral components: an assessment of the archaeological record, the agents involved in the cult, and their perception of the divine, all of which reveal both local and global features of religious practices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The case studies featured in this volume, originating from the Roman provinces of Macedonia and Achaea, illuminate the Greek, Roman, and Egyptian facets of this particular religious phenomenon. Each case study explores various topics such as the individuals involved, their choices when traversing the Aegean, the consequent shaping of their social identity, and their religious behaviour, practices and rites. This study reveals the dynamic synergy of location, geographical interconnectedness, and human interactions in these cultic spaces, all viewed under the broader framework of religious connectivity. The result is an in-depth examination of the complex religious interconnections of this multicultural landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDafni Maikidou-Poutrino\u003c\/b\u003e is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Classical Archaeology at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e04 February 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781350524880\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51197140369548,"sku":"9781350524880","price":103.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_b188136e-1e65-43f5-b903-378eb0cde8df.jpg?v=1782962327","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781350524880","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
