In addition to providing information on ancient magic, AM includes several tidbits of general interest:
* Rules on mongolian bows are given on p. 16-17.
* Rules for conducting Hermetic magic in languages other than Latin are on p. 29.
* A discussion of the spirits of the dead in ArM is given on p. 33, and communicating with the dead and Infernal attention on p. 34.
* A discussion of how Hermetic magic treats pregnancy is on p. 55.
* New fertility-related spells are detailed on p. 56, that may or may not be available for Hermetic maga to develop to cast on themselves (it isn't clear). A spell to move stone is on p. 60.
* Extended rules for library-research are on page 68, expanding on the rules in [[Covenants]].
* Stone-age are given on p.95. Supposedly, such (stone-age) weapons are available somewhere in Mythic Europe or one of its regiones.
* The Altars or "dragon-lines" of Alexander the Great (p. 125) may, at the SG's whim, exist regardless of any Ancient Magic related mechanics.

= Subject and Contents

Ancient Magic presents ten extinct magical traditions, and ways to discover their mystic secrets and integrate them into Hermetic magic. The traditions vary in detail, from the highly-detailed [[Hypeboran Magic]] system that is given in enough detail to create Hyperborian priest-wizards, to [[Defixio Magic]], of which only clues and relics remain.

The traditions are unrelated and it is unlikely that any given saga will use much of the contents of this book. But that is not its intent. The book offers a rich selection of exotic locales, ancient magical secrets, and the promise fo great power and adventure - which is something just about any saga could use an infusion of.
