Roman Religion
A really
long time ago in the roman times there was buildings called temples. Here are a
few facts about them. One thing they did inside was
worship many gods. The
people of the church burned animals and made sacrifices. Some of the people
thought it sent messages to the gods. The priest and emperor also prayed and took the peoples offering inside.
The poor people gave coins and brooches and the rich people gave silver
statues. Most people thought it would
give them good luck. Another
fact about the temple was the gods. There was goddess and gods. The goddesses were; Juno the
wife of Jupiter also goddess of goddess, Flora goddess of flowers and spring,
Terra goddess of Earth, Minerva
goddess of wisdom also daughter of Jupiter, and Venus goddess of love and beauty. The male gods were;
Mercury god of road and travel, Saturn god of fertility and planting, Sol god
of the sun, Cupid Venus son, Jupiter god of sky, Mars god of war, and Neptune god of the sea. The most
powerful god was Zeus god of gods. Now you should have a pretty good idea of roman religion.
