In this lavishly illustrated livestream talk, Dr Alinda Damsma will discuss the fascinating ways in which our ancient ancestors connected with their loved ones (and not so loved ones!) beyond the veil.
From the Bible, we learn that mediumship was practised in the ancient world. This livestream talk takes the intriguing biblical story about the Woman of Endor as the entry point to an in-depth exploration of mediumship throughout the ancient Near East, from Ancient Egypt to Mesopotamia.
