There are two opinions in this area where some people say Roman mythology is a Religion of its own and everything is genuine, others say it is influed by Greek and Etruscan Mythology, I'll make some examples.


he ancient Roman mythology which the majority worshiped was a set of gods, some of the common, or most known is; Mars, God of War, Minerva, Goddess of wisdom, Dis(aka Pluto), God of death and afterlife, Neptunus, God of the sea, Bacchus, God of intoxication and wine, Venus, Goddess of love and Jupiter, God of thunder and the sky.

The religion in ancient Rome has many similarities with the Greek and Etruscan Mythology, the most notable would be the Gods, they have practicly the same "set of Gods", just different names.

Greek | Roman | Etruscan
Ares - Mars - Maris
Athena - Minerva - Menrva
Hades - Dis/Pluto - Aita
Poseidon - Neptunus - Nethuns
Dionysus - Bacchus - Fufluns (Bacchus was a common name for Dionysus in Greece aswell)
Aphrodite - Venus - Turan
Zeus - Jupiter - Tinia
