In 'The Closing of the Western Mind', Charles Freeman, citing Vasiliki Limberis's work, 'Divine Heiress: The Virgin Mary and the Creation of Christian Constantinople', shows there is a clear link which reveals the transformation of Rhea, a virgin mother, into Mary. Hecate and Tyche are also involved as sources. Both Rhea and Tyche had temples built to them by Constantine in Constantinople. 109.145.194.227 ( talk) 09:45, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
I just checked Bowra's 1960 article, and he does indeed seem to be laboring under the delusion that there was a religion called Paganism in antiquity, though at points he does acknowledge that this is a translation of Hellenes. Bowra's article, however, is on the specific views of Palladas, and not an overview of Tyche. The Tyche of the late Roman Empire is a rather different figure from the early Greek Tyche, and is first shaped by Roman attributes and Imperial cult, and during the 4th century by Christian adaptation and rendering as a personification. She comes a long way from the pessimism of Greek Archaic poets. It would be good to get a better sense of chronology in the article, and not make it seem that there was a single goddess who can be reconstituted by assembling all evidence in all times and places.

In Greco-Buddhism page is said that "the [Japanese] mother deity Hariti [was] inspired by Tyche".
