Drakōn: dragon myth and serpent cult in the Greek and Roman worlds by Daniel Ogden.
Anyone read this?
Any comments, please?

A couple of years ago, maybe a decade actually, some nut-case who was endorsed by a member of the Royal Family, wrote a book in which everyone who was anybody was related to Jesus Christ. This guy also claimed the "Pendragon" was named for an Egyptian crocodile which was the basis of all dragon cults. Whatever happened to China? ;-)

Dan Peterson once lectured many on the dragon and its various symbological connections.
