From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


A ceremony to Jupiter being made by the Roman Republic group in British Columbia, Canada during the beginning of Ludi Romani in 2020.

Cultus Deorum Romanorum (worship of the Roman gods), known variously as Religio Romana (Roman religion) in Latin, the Roman Way to the gods in Italian and Spanish (via romana agli dei and camino romano a los dioses, respectively), is a contemporary reconstructionist movement reviving traditional Roman religious cults consisting of loosely related organizations.

Adherents can be found across Latin Europe, but also in the Americas, the latter exemplified by Nova Roma, and the Roman Republic organization the two largest Roman reconstructionist groups.[1][2]

As usually grouped in Italian literature, the Italian movements may not correspond precisely with the English-literature notion of reconstructionism, but to a more encompassing notion of "Roman Pagan tradition[alism]".[3] Loosely influenced by Julius Evola and Arturo Reghini's Ur Group of the 1920s, various other groups have appeared in Italy, most notably the Movimento Tradizionale Romano and Curia Romana Patrum in the 1980s, which unified some calendars.[4]
