Native Religious Traditions from a Lydian Perspective

View through CrossRef
On the basis of some recent new references to divinities in the Lydian text corpus, this article reconsiders what inscriptions in the Lydian language contribute towards a re- construction of Lydian religion and how these findings are reflected in the archaeological record. While the size of the available text corpus necessitates gaps in the resulting picture, it can be shown that progress is possible with questions of detail, for instance, regarding the controversial deity Qλdãns, and that, for a long time, Lydia was a region of encounter and exchange of religious traditions, where, among others, Anatolian and Greek traditions met.
