Conclusions
Maria-Zoe Petropoulou is a teacher on the International Baccalaureate Program of the Hellenic American Foundation, Athens.
Maria-Zoe Petropoulou's book encourages scholars to take seriously
the experience of religious sacrifice as encountered by actual
worshippers.
*Cally Hammond, Times Literary Supplement*
Petropoulou's book is an important contribution to the study of
late Hellenistic and early Roman religion, most notably for its
demonstration of the continued importance of animal sacrifice in
the early imperial period, and its elucidation of early Christian
responses to this phenomenon, particularly in the second
century.
