I can't remember anything specific from my own memory at this point, but perhaps similar to the direction you are going is the issue of dreams:
Knowledge of the Gods as "Manifest"
-
That is a fascinating line of thought, Eikadistes .
My thoughts have most consistently turned to thinking of the prolepsis of the gods as connected with the capacity of all humans (I would think) to experience awe and wonder, but I can't readily point to an academic paper or ancient text to back me up on that.
Mind-altering substances and rituals we're definitely part of ancient cultures. Lookin' at you, Dionysus!!
