Religion was integral to the conduct of war in the ancient world and the Greeks were certainly no exception.Religion was integral to the conduct of war in the ancient world and the Greeks were certainly no exception. Yet the link between war and religion is an area that has been regularly overlooked by modern scholars examining the conflicts of these times. No campaign was undertaken, no battle risked, without first making sacrifice to propitiate the appropriate gods (such as Ares, god of War) or consulting oracles and omens to divine their plans.
The chapters have been carefully structured by the editors so that this wide array of scholarship combines to give a coherent, comprehensive study of the role of religion in the wars of the Archaic and Classical Greek This volume addresses that omission by drawing together the work of experts from across the globe.
