The Religion Of Numa


And Other Essays On The Religion Of Ancient Rome

By Jesse Benedict Carter

[1906]


This is a short survey of the history of Roman religion, particularly the Roman pantheon, from its origins as abstract animistic deities, the infiltration of Greek gods and goddesses, the influence of the Sibyllines, the introduction of Near Eastern Goddess worship and other deities, and finally the rise of the God-Emperors, codified under Augustus.
