About this book
This is the climactic volume on the archaeological and architectural history from ca. 31 B.C. to A.D. 365 of the extramural sanctuary of Demeter and Persephone at Cyrene, Libya. It traces the characteristics of major Demeter sanctuaries elsewhere and places the Cyrene sanctuary within the context of this development.
