N.S. Gill, About.com’s guide to Classical History, has posted some good pointers to online resources about Egeria. Egeria was the Spanish nun who kept a diary of her pilgrimage to the Holy Land, probably in the fourth century. The diary is a warm document, rich in description of the Church’s official liturgy as well as the spontaneous and popular piety of ordinary Christians. And it’s one of the extremely few records we have of the “mothers” of the Church. For a full text of Egeria’s book (at least as much as has survived), see here.
