There is a long and distinguished history of Scandinavian interest in Greek religion. Since Martin Nilsson Swedish scholars have shown a particular interest in the origins of Greek cult practice, and so have long experience in combining literary and archaeological evidence. [...]the contributors to this volume are more closely focused on broader historical questions. Mazarakis Ainian provides a good overview of what might and might not have counted as hero cult in Early Iron Age Greece.
