Bull cults

Bull cults refer to religious or spiritual groups that worship bulls or regard them as sacred symbols. These cults often originate from ancient civilizations like Mesopotamia, Minoan Crete, or India, where bulls symbolized strength, fertility, and divine power. Participants might perform rituals, sacrifices, or ceremonies honoring the bull as a deity or a manifestation of divine energy. Such cults reflect the cultural importance of bulls in agriculture, mythology, and religious practices, serving to connect communities with notions of vitality, protection, and spiritual authority.
