This thesis presents a critical reading of youth rites of passage in Ancient Greece with a view to determine how far our conceptualisation of the phenomenon reflects ancient practice. This is realised through the exploration of a number of themes related to youth worship of Artemis and Apollo while placing ancient evidence in the position of highest authority and evaluating the implications of modern commentaries and anthropological models on our understanding of the phenomenon.
An interdisciplinary approach is adopted, drawing on archaeological and literary evidence and the various approaches to rites of passage applied in anthropology, sociology and classics.
The thesis finds that the modern concept of rites of passage does not manifest itself in Ancient Greek evidence as elaborately as is currently perceived by classical scholars and that attempts to attribute the initiatory function to Artemisian and Apollonian worship and cult activity demonstrate modern bias and distort our understanding of coming of age in antiquity. Iconographic analogies between the Mithraic torchbearers, Cautes and Cautopates, and the Greek Dioscuri encourage a comparative analysis of these figures in context.
Previous studies have emphasized the potential for the divine twins to be the origins of the torchbearers: a closer examination of the Dioscuri as they functioned within another mystery cult, the rites of the Great Gods of Samothrace, offers light on both the phenomenology of initiation and the cultural context common to both the Greek and the Roman rituals. Among the numerous visual and conceptual parallels, the strongest commonality between the two sets of youths is a cultural appetite for astral mysticism, which connects the late Republican Roman voices on Samothrace and the later world of the Mithraic caves.
