"The Lesser Key of Solomon" is a 17th-century grimoire, attributed to King Solomon, that outlines the methods for summoning and controlling various demons. It is divided into five sections, with the first section, Ars Goetia, detailing 72 demons, their ranks, and the rituals needed to invoke them. The text is part of a larger tradition of Solomonic magic, which draws on ancient beliefs about the power of names and symbols. While it has been influential in occult practices, it is often viewed with skepticism by scholars and is considered a work of folklore rather than a historical document.
