Greek Mythology > People, Places, & Things > Romans
The people of Rome; inhabitants of the city in east-central Italy which founded the empire which replaced the Greeks as the dominant power in the known civilized world.
The mythology of Rome is closely linked to that of the Greeks but differs in many fundamental ways; the Roman deities were very similar to the Greek Immortals and included some of the same names and genealogies but the interpretations of the meanings and subtleties of the Greek religion was filtered through the more “modern” and more aggressive minds of the Romans and thus became a separate and distinctly different religion.
