Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What entity did the Kabbalists consider the fiery Pleroma, or the Holy Spirit of God?

Answer: Shekhinah

The Shekhinah is another name for God's earthly domain for the Hebrews. In other words...the mundane world that we reside upon!

2. In the "La Queste del Saint Graal" where did the image of the Grail appear to the Knights of the Round Table?

Answer: Banquet hall

'La Queste del Saint Graal' is part of the Vulgate Cycle...a must read for any grail fanatics out there!

3. What civilization produced the magnificent stone sculpture titled the 'Gumelnita Lovers' ?

Answer: Romanian

Not exactly of the modern Romanian variety, more ancient of course. The Gumelnitsa civilization stretched up into the Ukraine and Moldova, north of the Black Sea.

4. Who was a fish-goddess of Chaldean myth?

Answer: Onannes

The Chaldean dynasty of Babylon, like many of the other Middle Eastern cultures, produced a myth of the flood within which Onannes played a small part.

5. How does the word 'epiphany' translate literally from the Greek?

Answer: Showing forth

An epiphany is a sudden intuitive realization. For example, I just had an epiphany...I shall make an extremely obscure quiz to place online at Funtrivia! And so I did...I hope you were able to enjoy despite the difficult questions...thank you for giving it a try.
