GODDESS ROME Genuine Ancient Roman Bronze Coin 3rd Cent. BC Silver Pendant
This sterling silver pendant features an authentic 3rd century BC coin depicting the Goddess Roma on the front and the prow of a Roman ship on the back. In ancient Roman religion, the Goddess Roma was a strikingly beautiful deity symbolizing the city of Rome and the Roman state. Roman political and religious ideals were often embodied in the Goddess Roma through various forms such as coins, sculptures, and architectural drawings. Although her representations were influenced by other goddesses, particularly Athena, the Goddess Roma emerged as a distinct and true symbol of Rome.
As an archetype, she represents the ideal model for rational women, guided by both intellect and emotion, capable of maintaining control in difficult situations by devising effective strategies. This archetype encourages women to manage events carefully, consider the consequences, and adjust actions when necessary to achieve the best outcomes. In Roman art and coinage, she is typically depicted with a helmet and military equipment. The divine Roma had a dedicated cult with an exclusively male priesthood.
