A Dissertation on the Mysteries of the Cabiri, Vol. I

In the following attempt to elucidate the Mysteries of the Cabiri, I have ventured to dissent from the Analysis of ancient Mythology A seminal work by Jacob Bryant, in various matters, besides my account of the Titanic war ^c. I have also differed considerably from many other very learned and valuable works; but I trust, that, whenever I have found it necessary to express my dissent, I have always done it in that respectful language, to which the worth and talents of their authors so justly entitle them. The field of inquiry is open to all; nor ought any man to be censured on the score of presumption, merely because he disagrees with his predecessors. Fully conscious at the same time of the deep obscurity, which involves the history of the Cabiri, as I have made objections to the systems of others, I am prepared to expect, that objections may also be made to various parts of my own system.
