The Alexandrian Divinities is a book written by Francis Legge that explores the religious beliefs and practices of ancient Alexandria, Egypt. The book provides a detailed account of the various gods and goddesses worshipped by the people of Alexandria, including Serapis, Isis, and Osiris. Legge delves into the origins of these deities and their significance in the daily lives of the people, as well as the ways in which their worship evolved over time. The book also examines the role of the Ptolemaic rulers in promoting and shaping the religious landscape of Alexandria, and the impact of Hellenistic and Roman influences on the city's religious traditions. The Alexandrian Divinities is a comprehensive and insightful study of one of the most fascinating and complex religious cultures in ancient history.THIS 68 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Forerunners and Rivals of Christianity From 330 BC to 330 AD, by Francis Legge.
