  Magna Charta - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Magna Charta
As feudalism declined, Magna Carta lost its significance, and under the Tudors was almost forgotten.
Such rights were particularly seen to be enshrined in Clause 12, which appeared to forbid taxation without consent, and Clause 39, which states that ‘no freeman shall be...imprisoned...except by lawful judgement of his peers or by the law of the land’.
In this way, a direct link has been claimed from Magna Carta through to the UK Bill of Rights (1689), the US Declaration of Independence (1776), and the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948).

 Ebla Forum: View topic - Ancient Mystery Cults
Burkert's introduction begins with an acknowledgement of the indebtednesss of the field to two scholars, Richard Reizenstein and Franz Cumont for "setting the pace" in the study of the mysteries, even as they are now being eclipsed by the expanding numbers of documents and influx of new, particularly Italian, scholars.
At the sanctuaries of Isis, a daily service was executed from morning to night, while the Mater Magna had her festival in spring, though the tauobolia were unrelated to calendrical events.
Mater Magna was also understood as Mother Earth, and thus with Demeter in this "mystic" (allegorical) way: castration was mowing the ears of grain, the galli mutilated themselves on dies sanguinis which symbolised the wounding of the earth with ploughshares.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 97.6.18
The Anatolian origins of the cult at Rome and the nature of the extant evidence, however, complicate the question for drawing such distinctions between Roman and 'Phrygian' forms.
From this she suggests a distinction between the Magna Deorum Mater Idaea and Cybele from Pessinus as 'overlapping entities.' She gives some brief attention to the distinction.
In "Magna Mater, Cybele and Attis in Roman Spain," Ubina offers a historical analysis of the items from Roman Spain collected by Vermaseren (CCCA, V), almost all of which are dated to the second and third centuries CE.

 Avatars of the Goddess   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
Her full name was Magna Mater deorum Idaea: Great Mother of the gods, and she was worshipped on Mount Ida. Her cult spread through Greece from the 6th to 4th century, and was introduced in Rome in 205 BCE.
Later she was known as Mater Matuta, the patroness of newborn babes, but also of the sea and harbors.
Her temple was situated on the Forum Boarium (the cattle market).

 Ancient Mystery Cults
First, that the so-called mystery religions are typically "late", within the Imperial or later Hellenistic period, "when the brilliance of the Hellenic mind was giving way to the irrational, heading as it were for the dark Middle Ages." While Isis in Rome was installed under Caligula, Eleusis flourished from the 6th century
B.C.E., Dionysus-Bacchus just slightly later, and the Mother Goddess (Mater Magna) from the archaic period.
The second stereotype is that these mysteries were "Oriental" in origin style and spirit—particularly because of Cumont's standard work, The Oriental Religions in Roman Paganism, and Reitzenstein's Hellenistic Mystery Religions which defined "Hellenistic" here according to "Oriental spirituality in Hellenized form" (Burkert, p.
