The Chald an Oracles are a product of Hellenistic syncretism.
In her intimate contact with the Orient, the mind of Greece freely united with the mysterious and enthusiastic cults and wisdom-traditions of the other nations, and became very industrious in philosophizing their mythology, theosophy and gnosis, their oracular utterances, symbolic apocalypses and initiatory lore.
