hawkwing_lbIf anyone ever desires to know about the cult of Isis in Greece in the Hellenistic period, I offer you an extensive bibliography.
Dunand and Bricault are probably best for an overview, as long as you can read French. Zabkar's final chapter discusses the praise hymns in some detail. Dow is fabulous on the Egyptian cults at Athens, even though the article is getting on for over seventy years old. And Mikalson is available online.
