Beschreibung
The desire for prosperity and protection from the destructive forces of nature is of all times. Some two thousand years ago, on the North Sea coast in the south of what is now the Netherlands, a Goddess was worshiped who was held responsible for both of these desires. Nehalennia, or She, who lives on the coast, had her temples there, in which people of Germanic, Celtic and Roman origin promised to grant her an offering, if under her protection they had returned safely from the dangerous crossing to England, and, in most cases, had also done good business. A rich treasure trove of votive stones engraved with the donors' thanks to Nehalennia demonstrate this abundantly. This book shows and describes many of those altar stones and paints a picture of the practice in this frontier area of the Roman Empire.

Über den Autor
Gunivortus Goos has published several books and articles, initially under the pseudonym GardenStone, which he abandoned a handfull of years ago. Born in the Dutch city of Groningen, he left his hometown several decades ago and moved to Germany, where he now lives in a small town in the beautiful Taunus Hills region in the state of Hesse.
He is a computer geek, a lover of fantasy books, often listens to music ranging from classical to folk metal, blues, country, oldies and more, and enjoys a good beer or a glass of dry wine. The author's 'addiction' is researching historical topics of personal interest.
