    introduction 5

    H A ( c.180 BC) , .5 I , , G

    .There was probably a hierarchy among Mycenaean divinities, asPoseidon is mentioned most and receives the greatest number o oer-

    ings in Pylos. Rather surprisingly, he almost certainly had a wie,

    Posidaeja (PY Tn 316.4), just as Zeus seems to have had a wie Diwia,

    who survived in outlying Pamphylia,6 but who was already replaced in

    Mycenaean times by Hera.7 Zeus and Hera even have a son, Drimios

    (PY Tn 316.89), but he, too, is no longer attested in the frst millennium.

    As in classical times, some o these gods seem to have had an epithet,

    an important part o the Greek divine personality, which is gradually

    receiving long overdue attention.8 This is especially clear in the case

    o Potnia, a generic epithet that was applied to dierent goddesses and

    determined by a reerence to a cult place or a specifc characteristic. The

    topographical title Potnia o Atana (KN V 5.1) is comparable to other

    topographical epithets, such as Apollo Delios or Aphrodite Paphia, and

    the Potnia o the horses (PY An 181.1) looks very much like the later

    Athena Hippia or Poseidon Hippios, o the horses. The most intrigu-

    ing combination is Hermes Areias (PY Tn 316.7), which resembles thelater Athena Areia or Aphrodite Areia.9 But whereas in classical Greek

    religion a goddess is always combined with the adjectival orm o a god,

    or vice versa,30 this is clearly not yet the case in Mycenaean times.

    14 11 A DK as quoted by Arist. De an. 1.5, 411a8, who takes it as a possible reerenceto the cosmic soul (note his , perhaps). The authenticity, intended meaningand exact wording o the dictum ascribed to Thales are ar rom certain. Platocites it without attribution and with inverted word order (Leg. 10.899b8 , c. Epin. 991d4 ). According to At. Plac. 1.7.11= 11 A 3 DK, Thales held that the All is both animate and ull o daimons (). Representative discussions include Jaeger,Theology, pp. 1 and 1989 n. 10; W. K. C. Guthrie, A History o Greek PhilosophyI(Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 196), pp. 656; G. S. Kirk et al., ThePresocratic Philosophers (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1983), pp. 958.A monotheistic version o the dictum (Everything is ull ogod, )is embedded in one o the theological oracles ound in the Tbingen Theosophy andin other texts rom late antiquity; see Theosoph. Tubing. 43.365 Erbse (above, n. 10).

Detienne,Pour exprimenter dans le champ des polythismes, Mtis 910 (19945), pp. 419.Detienne was the frst historian o Greek religion who broke with convention andused the term polytheism in the subtitle o a book on Greek gods: Apollon, le couteau la main: Une approche exprimentale du polythisme grec (Paris: Gallimard, 1998).
