This magisterial compilation personalizes and historicizes the
history of religion in the city of Rome. After introductory essays
on the documentary sources for the various Greek, Roman, Oriental,
Jewish, and Christian cults in question, there are yearly lists of
religious office-holders of various kinds, followed by 4,000
biographies of individuals who fulfilled ritual, organizational, or
doctrinal roles. Concluding chapters discuss important aspects of
Roman religion and its relationship with the state. The data
assembled here will open up many new perspectives: on the social
place of religion and certain cults, on the interplay between
different religious groups, and on the organizational history of
individual cults. The volume as a whole signifies a major advance
in our understanding of ancient religions.
