A privately printed Victorian compilation on serpent worship, issued as a companion to a volume on phallic religion. It gathers reports from ancient writers, travellers and antiquaries on serpent cults in Egypt, India, Greece, the Celtic lands and the Americas, including the Maya legend of Kukulcan, and weighs the theory that all serpent worship had a phallic origin.
A curiosity of Victorian esoteric scholarship, best read as a period document rather than reliable history. Download the free EPUB.
