| Necromancy description |
|---|
| Necromancy () is a practice of magic involving communication with the deceased either by summoning their spirit as an apparition or raising them bodily for the purpose of divination, imparting the means to foretell future events or discover hidden knowledge, to bring someone back from the dead, or to use the deceased as a weapon, as the term may sometimes be used in a more general sense to refer to black magic or witchcraft.The word "necromancy" is adapted from Late Latin necromantia, itself borrowed from post-Classical Greek (nekromanteía), a compound of Ancient Greek (nekrós), "dead body", and (manteía), "divination by means of"; this compound form was first used by Origen of Alexandria in the 3rd century AD. The Classical Greek term was (nekyia), from the episode of the Odyssey in which Odysseus visits the realm of the dead and in Hellenistic Greek, rendered as necromanta in Latin, and as necromancy in 17th-century English. |
