Recenzii
Anahita stands as one of the most important and compelling deities of the ancient Iranian pantheon, yet her mythology, ritual worship, and legacy has been understudied, especially in English-language scholarship. Manya Saadi-nejad's study of the ancient water goddess draws together key texts and images to enlighten our understanding of a cosmically significant deity.
