Did the ancient Greeks believe that the gods inhabited their images, or were the images visual references to the gods that helped the pious focus their prayers? This lecture will look at ancient images that show people interacting with statues – praying to them, seeking sanctuary with them, offering them sacrifices – as a different way to answer this question.
