Abstract

In the theurgic rituals attested by the Chaldean Oracles and other writings related to Neoplatonism plants, animals and stones were often used to evoke a certain divinity. The theurgic vis of these practices results also from other works, which allow us to know a wide range of traditions that influence each other.
