Mystery Religion Internet Sourcebook
The idea here is to compile as many possible sources for the study of the mystery religions of the ancient Mediterranean.
It takes both its inspiration and its starting point from Marvin Meyer's Ancient Mysteries sourcebook. Using its table of contents, we will supply selections from already-available translations, and proceed from there to extend the database. If you want to help, you can quote this message and indicate the URL where the text can be found, or indicate instead that you can't find the text.
