"Should I marry? Will I be healthy? Should I travel? Is my business plan sound? Which gods should I worship to succeed?" These urgent questions, scratched onto lead tablets and left at the oracle of Zeus and Diona at Dodona, bring you face to face with ancient Greek hopes and anxieties. This book asks what people really wanted from the gods and how divine consultation shaped everyday decisions. By reading these inscriptions against their social and economic contexts, you will discover how ordinary men and women navigated family life, work, health, and belief. Drawing on a unique body of epigraphic evidence, the book offers a vivid, ground-level view of daily life and lived religion in the Classical and Hellenistic Greek world.
