摘要：This essay will approach the subject in the form of a comparative onomastic study which will enable us to see band names as an indicator for different modes of classical reception. We will focus on references to ancient Mediterranean cultures from Egyptian and biblical to Persian, Greek and Roman contexts. Even though we have restricted our search to bands with at least one proper release (full-length album or EP), our sample still contains about 2,000 entries. Due to the technical restrictions of a single essay, we will deal with this huge number of names in a three-part analysis.
