Examines how the cult of Mother of the Gods came from Phrygia and Lydia, where she was the mother of tyrants, to Athens, where she protected the laws of the Athenian democracy. This work describes how Kybebe, the Lydian goddess, assumed a different aspect to the Greeks when Lydia became part of the Persian empire.
