  1. RELIGION IN ROME 100 C.E By: Lena Chapdelaine

  2. Sacrifices made to the gods and goddesses include... WHY RELIGION WAS SO IMPORTANT Romans believed that the Gods and Goddesses controlled their daily lives.  The Romans made promises and offered sacrifices to their Gods and Goddesses at the temples and shrines. 

  3. WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RICH AND POOR RELIGION Small text The Rich Romans and the Poor Romans were equal with Religion, even if the Rich had better things to offer because Rich they had more money. All the Romans worshiped the same Gods and Goddesses and had the same rituals in how they worshiped them 

  4. INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT ROME RELIGION Whenever someone would get sick or hurt, and they broke a bone or needed healing, the Romans would leave out a clay body part at the temples to tell the Gods or Goddesses which body part had to be healed.   Soon, emperors were honored as gods. The emperor Caligula had a temple with a golden statue of himself made. It was dressed each day based on what he was wearing.  As Rome kept expanding there were more religious customs from  other cultures that were allowed as long as they still respected the emperor, and were not disloyal to them. 

  5. Vesta Vesta is the goddess of the furnace.  The Romans would worship her once every year by throwing a cake into the furnace, built into the altar that was in every person's home. The altar is where the people in Rome worship the gods and spirits of the household. The temples are where other Gods were worshiped.  Vesta is another form of the Greek Goddess Hestia.
