There is a valid topic in this, but it is not so far identified clearly. "Ghosts" isn't a useful title for this. The topic could be delineated as something like "afterlife beliefs in the Ancient Near East" and integrated with both religions of the Ancient Near East and Shade (mythology). The latter is the direct reflex or continuation of the ANE beliefs in Classical Antiquity. --dab (𒁳) 10:20, 1 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
