Personifications

The Personifications category explores the divine embodiments of abstract ideas that shaped Roman thought and values. Figures such as Fortuna (Fortune), Victoria (Victory), Concordia (Harmony), and Pax (Peace) were not merely symbols — they were worshiped as living forces guiding human destiny and civic life.

These deities revealed how Romans transformed virtues, emotions, and concepts into tangible divine presences. Through temples, altars, and art, personifications linked the spiritual and political worlds, reminding citizens that order, fortune, and justice were gifts of the gods.
