Marina Escolano-Poveda provides an in-depth analysis of prominent priests through various literary sources, contrasting their self-representation with external perceptions. This revised edition incorporates recent discussions, offering fresh insights into the priests' influence on Hellenistic, Roman, and Late Antique culture.
