    A very important part of Rome’s history is its ancient cults. The Romans believed in gods and goddesses, it was not faith, it was a cultic worship. There are so many written about Greek mythology and yes, the Romans copied most of that as they were a very practical people. On this tour, you will learn why the Romans did what the Romans did with its mythology and most specially, with its foundation myth.
