Roman Mythology: A Complete Introduction
Roman mythology is not what most people expect. It is less interested in gods behaving badly and more interested in gods behaving appropriately — and in what happens when humans fail to maintain the relationship that makes civilization possible.
Roman Gods: A Guide to the Deities of Ancient Rome
The Roman gods weren’t distant figures from myth — they were woven into politics, warfare, agriculture, and daily life. This is your complete guide to the divine world of ancient Rome.
Minerva: Goddess of Wisdom, Strategy, and the Arts
She was born fully armed from her father’s skull. The Romans put her at the center of their state religion and made her the patron goddess of nearly every skilled profession in Rome.
Mars: Roman God of War, Agriculture, and the Founding of Rome
March is named for him. So is the planet. He was the father of Romulus, the divine patron of Roman armies, and — before any of that — a god of farming.
Neptune: Roman God of the Sea, Horses, and Earthquakes
Rome built one of the ancient world’s most powerful navies and named their greatest sea battle after him. Neptune himself had almost no myths to speak of.
Juno: Queen of the Gods and Protector of Women
She spent seven books of the Aeneid trying to prevent Rome from being founded. She failed. The Romans still made her one of their three supreme gods.

Five planets were named for Roman gods. The largest got Jupiter. The Romans would have considered this entirely appropriate.
