Leland (identified by the \"C. G. L.\" attribution on several original drawings). The list catalogs roughly sixty figures depicting Etruscan and Roman deities \u2014 including Turan (Venus), Turms (Mercury), Tinia (Jupiter), Fufluns (Bacchus), Sethlans (Vulcan), and lesser spirits such as the Lasa (guardian spirits), Lemures, and a \"house goblin or Etruscan brownie\" \u2014 drawn from ancient mirrors, bronzes, vases, and patera. The work draws on earlier antiquarian authorities including Gerhard, Gori, Corssen, and Dennis, suggesting it synthesizes mid-19th-century Continental scholarship on Etruscan iconography. Beyond the major gods, the illustrations extend into folk-religious territory: amulets against the evil eye, magic bells, a \"lettered cylinder,\" dream postures, and rural spirits like Pan and Faunus, indicating the book's scope spans formal theology and popular magical practice. The table alone cannot convey an argument, but the selection signals a work interested in continuities between Etruscan, Roman, and surviving folk-religious traditions \u2014 a characteristic preoccupation of Leland's comparative folklore scholarship.","tags":[],"text":null,"title":"List of Illustrations","tradition":"Sacred Texts: Wicca and Neo-Paganism","translated_text":null,"word_count":590}
