2. 'The Jesus Mysteries' by Timothy Freke & Peter Gandy
Edited on Tue Nov-16-04 06:29 PM by PhuLoi
published by Harmony Books, copyright 1999, subtitled 'was the "Original Jesus" a Pagan God?.' The cover jacket bears a photo of a carved medallion(?) upon which a figure is crucified. Writing engraved upon the medallion identifies the figure as pagan godman Osiris-Dionysus. Of course you haven't, hope this helps.

Edited for spelling.

Again, dammit.
