A new exploration of sacred cosmology, oracles, prophecy, and humanity's enduring search for divine wisdom.
DARWIN, Australia - AussieJournal -- Independent author Peta Oakes announces the release of The Oracles of the Ancient World: Prophecy, Sacred Speech, and Divine Revelation Across Civilisations, a new exploration of the prophetic traditions that stood at the heart of the ancient world.
From the famous Oracle of Delphi to the sacred groves of Dodona, and from the temples of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the prophetic traditions of Rome and the Celtic lands, the book examines how ancient peoples sought guidance from the divine. Through mythology, archaeology, religious history, and comparative study, readers are introduced to the individuals, rituals, and sacred landscapes that shaped humanity's enduring search for wisdom and revelation.
The volume explores how prophecy influenced political decisions, warfare, kingship, law, religious practice, and cultural identity across multiple civilisations. It also examines the symbolism, myths, and sacred traditions surrounding some of history's most influential centres of divination.
