The oracle procedure employed in the sacral complex of Zeus Ammon in Siwa oasis apparently did not differ from that of the standard Egyptian barque procession.

The creator of the building was...
The author puts forward the hypothesis that the 'scapegoat' ritual had been introduced to Greece under the influence of the Phoenicians. That opinion is based on five arguments: 1. the etymology of the term suba/xos (connected with Hebr. zebah and Phoen. zbh 'sacrifice'); 2. the great role of the number seven at the 'scapegoat' ritual in Greece and at the Semitic rituals (including the scapegoat rituals...
