The historiola is a modern term for a kind of incantation incorporating a short mythic story that provides the paradigm for the desired magical action.[1][2] It can be found in ancient Mesopotamian,[3] Egyptian[4] and Greek mythology, in the Aramaic Uruk incantation, incorporated in Mandaean incantations,[5][6][7] as well as in Jewish kabbalah.[8][9] There are also Christian examples evoking Christian legends.[1]
