"Savior-gods and fertility-goddesses held their resurrection festivals at the
full moon following the vernal equinox. Christianity celebrated its
resurrection feast on the same date. One of the best-known
fertility-goddesses was Easter, also spelled Ishtar, Astarte and Ashtaroth."
- William Harwood, Mythologies Last Gods: Yahweh and Jesus
