I have just found some audio feeds about “religion” in the ancient Mediterranean by Philip A. Harland. From what I have heard so far in 4.1: “Introduction to Honouring the Gods,” it sounds interesting. Harland spends a lot of time in this episode discussing the modern individual as an “outsider” and its implications for studying ancient polytheistic religions, along with talking about the polytheistic world view and the definition of religion.
While not focused exclusively on ancient Hellenic Polytheism, I do think that a lot of the topics addressed in the blurbs of this podcast series are relevant and could prove useful for modern Hellenistai. If you want to check it out, go to Podcast Archive for the feeds. You want to focus on 4.1 to 4.6, as much of the earlier seasons focus on Yeshua and early Christianity.
