Magistri Docent: The cult of Men Tiamou, preliminary remarks

Journal Title: Miscellanea Anthropologica et Sociologica - Year 2014, Vol 15, Issue 3

Abstract

This article explores, in a preliminary fashion, the evidence for the cult of Men Tiamou, which was confined to the region of Lydia Katakeaumene (“Burnt Lydia”). The epithet seems to be derived from the personal name Tiamos, which is found in Anatolia, and which seems to be of Persian origin, being found at Persepolis.
