Babylon's Secret Gods

Babylon's Secret Gods follows one of the oldest and most seductive religious-conspiracy claims in history: that ancient Babylon preserved a hidden system of sacred knowledge that survived its own collapse and passed into later mystery cults, empire religions, and secret traditions. Tom McKenzie and the Narrator descend into the real religious world of Babylon—its priests, temples, omens, laments, and divine figures like Ishtar and Tammuz—before tracing how later writers transformed that complexity into the sweeping theory known as the Babylon mystery religion.
