ISBN10: 0520058755, ISBN13: 9780520058750, [publisher: University of California Press] Softcover University of California Press, 2nd printing, 1983. Softbound book condition: as new. Covers, binding, and pages all as new and unmarked. 334 pages; 9 X 6 X 1; 1 lb. 7 oz. shipping weight. Homo necans literally means "killing man". This volume explores the phenomenon of blood sacrifice, specifically in ancient Greece, and how sacrifice, sacrificial ritual, and myth interact. Such sacrifices were performed throughout the ancient world and represent a survival of a desire to appease the animal spirit after a successful hunt among hunter-gatherer societies. This volume is Burkert's best known work, and perhaps his most ambitious.
