| 1412 | Demeter ENT_DEMETER | received_as | Demons ENT_CHR_DEMONS | medium | Demeter's Eleusinian Mysteries were a primary patristic target: Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 66) presents the mysteries as demonic counterfeits of Christian sacraments; Clement of Alexandria (Protrepticus II) extensively mocks the Eleusinian rites as demonic obscenities.
