Resource Playlists
Our YouTube account exists primarily as a repository of helpful playlists for learning about Hellenic Polytheism, the Greek language, and the history, music, literature, traditions & culture of ancient Greece.
While we don't produce our own content for our YouTube channel, you can find a few of our staff members around. Fel the Blithe and D. Asklepiades have their own channels, and Kaz has been interviewed by Aliakai on Hittite polytheism and more recently on Ancient Greek Magic.
