How do we understand a religion without texts? Minoan and Mycenaean imagery has long been interpreted through comparisons with Egypt and the ancient Near East—but never in a comprehensive and systematic way. This book offers the first consistent analysis of such connections. By examining seals, frescoes, rings, and luxury objects, it reveals how religious ideas, divine figures, and elite identities were shaped through visual language. A large corpus of Aegean and Near Eastern material shows how motifs were related to one another and how foreign motifs were selected, adapted, and transformed. The study provides new tools for interpreting Aegean religion and offers fresh insights into intercultural exchange and the movement of images and ideas across the Bronze Age Mediterranean.
