In Roman religion Opis (in classical religion, Ops in archaic religion) became associated with Rhea because Saturn became associated with Cronus, whose wife was Rhea.
Rhea in early traditions was known as "the mother of gods" and therefore is strongly associated with Cybele, who had similar functions. Therefore, the Romans also associated Magna Mater (Great Mother) with Rhea. This is the name the Romans gave to Cybele when they adopted her during the Second Punic War.
