## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Research
  

*by W***K on Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2016*

A great academic coverage of this early religion.  Great for general knowledge and for research puposes.  Well footnoted and documented.  One needs to focus when reading it, but it is easily understood.  Highly recommend it to scholars and anyone who is interested in the evolution of religion thrpughout the world.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The foundational work on the study of Mithraism
  

*by D***H on Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2013*

This is still an authoritative book in this mysterious oriental religion that drew on many aspects of Christianity. Although more recent research may have eclipsed some of Cumont's findings and statements, it is a good overview of Mithraism. Read this book to get up to speed on the "Cattle thief" god whom many Roman legionaries followed in the 2nd-5th centuries.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good starter reference
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2017*

Reviewers say Cumont's work is the bedrock standard on understanding Mithraism.  I found this book helpful, but a little out of date.  I found Payam Nabarz's book more readable and informative.  But I do appreciate the background I got from reading Cumont first.
