“The History and Art of Ventriloquism” by Valentine Vox: Since biblical times, another creative manifestation of multiple personality?

On the chance that ventriloquism may be another creative manifestation of multiple personality, I plan to read its history (1, 2), which dates back to biblical times and the “Witch of Endor” (3). “In the Septuagint (2nd century BC) the woman is described as a ventriloquist” (3).
