Etruscan Magic and Occult Remedies is a book written by Charles Godfrey Leland, an American folklorist and writer. The book is a comprehensive study of the ancient Etruscan civilization's magical practices and remedies. The Etruscans were an ancient civilization that lived in the central region of Italy between the 8th and 3rd centuries BCE. The book delves into the Etruscan's beliefs and practices surrounding magic, including divination, spells, and the use of amulets and talismans. It also covers the Etruscan's use of herbs and other natural remedies for healing and protection against evil spirits. Leland provides detailed descriptions of the Etruscan gods and goddesses, their roles in magic, and the rituals associated with them. He also includes translations of ancient Etruscan texts and inscriptions, providing readers with a firsthand look at the Etruscan's beliefs and practices. Overall, Etruscan Magic and Occult Remedies is a fascinating exploration of an ancient civilization's magical practices and beliefs. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of magic and the occult.1897. The results of Mr. Leland's researches has been the collection of such a number of magic formulas, tales, and poems. What he has given in this book is of very great interest to all students of classical lore of every kind, and extremely curious as illustrating the survival to the present day of the Gods in exile in a far more literal manner. It will be found to illustrate many minor questions. It should be observed that all these superstitions, observances, legends, names, and attributes of spirits are at present far from being generally known.
