I'm more interested in what's called "Reconstructionist" paths...that is... Reviving ancient Polytheist cultural religions from the bronze and iron age Europe, Middle East, The Americas, etc......such as Norse, Celtic, Hellenic, Roman, Canaanite, Phoenician, Mesopotamian, etc..... I myself am part of the ancient Near Eastern branches..specifically Mesopotamian traditions.

Many biblical scholars {the academic kind, not ’true believers'} assert the origins of much found in the Old Testament was transmitted to one of the Tribes of Israel while exiled in Mesopotamia.
I’m intrigued you have an interest in reconstructionism. How does one chose which path to follow amongst so many ?
PS: Spellcheck on my Mac wants to change ‘reconstructionism’ into 'deconstructionism'
