Belief in divination did not die easily. On the whole the Greek writers defended it based on a "trust the gods" argument. Aristotle turned against it and with him Romans of the late Republic. For a summary of the arguments, refer to Raphals 2013, pp. 356–364. The emperors, who would brook no criticism, especially none claiming to be divine (they claimed to be gods themselves), made divination a dangerous occupation on a large scale. The advent of imperial Christianity sealed its fate. Christianity regards divination as the work of the devil, along with witchcraft. Raphals, Lisa (2013).

Koch 2010, pp. 47–48. After tracing an origin of extispicy in Mesopotamia, Koch remarks: "M.
