APOLLO

Apollo is the god of light. There

is a roman story that says every

morning Apollo gets into his

chariot with four horses pulling

him and the sun across the sky

bringing light to the day.

Apollo is a member of Dii

Consentes. This is a group of

twelve gods that the Romans

held higher than any other gods.

Apollo is also thought of to be a

healing and purifying god. This

is actually how he came to be

known in Rome.

Apollo thought to be the one

who taught man medicine and is

considered the god of medicine.

ROMAN MYTHOLOGYBY: ADAM LEGG

Beliefs

The Romans were polytheistic. They not

only believed in divine gods, but demigods.

Demigods are gods that are half human

and half god. The Romans built each god

a temple filled with treasures. Priests were

the only people allowed in temples and

took part in religious ceremonies in them.

JUPITER

Jupiter is the leader of all the Roman gods. He is

the god of the sky, lightning, and thunder. Jupiter

is considered the patron god of Rome. Jupiter

can be compared to the Greek god Zeus. Like

Zeus it was believed that Jupiter would throw

lightning bolts at humans when he was angry. It

is also believed that Jupiter overthrew is father

Saturn in order to become king of the gods.

JUNO

Juno is the queen of the gods. She is not only

Jupiter’s wife, but also his sister. She is the god

of childbirth and women. It is said that Juno is

often angry because of Jupiter’s many affairs.

Juno is considered the protector of the state of

Rome and the guardian of Rome’s finances.

Interestingly enough, the month June is named

after her.

CERES

Ceres is the goddess of agriculture, civilization,

law, and the love a mother gives to her child.

The Romans liked Ceres because she provided

them with the food they needed. Being the

goddess of agriculture Ceres is thought to have

taught the humans how to grow food. Ceres is

the only god that is involved daily with the people;

unlike other some gods who occasionally

dropped by.

DIANA

Diana is the goddess of the moon and hunting.

She is also thought to be the goddess of nature,

protector of the weak, and has been known to

grant an easy childbirth to her favorites. Diana is

usually seen with a bow and arrow and is known

for her hunting skills and athletic ability. Women

frequently prayed to Diana in hope she would

watch over them and keep them safe.
