Polytheistic beliefs in ancient cultures, such as those of the Greeks and Romans, often revolved around a pantheon of gods and goddesses, each associated with specific aspects of life and nature. These deities were believed to interact with humans, influencing events and requiring rituals for appeasement. In comparison, modern polytheistic beliefs, such as those in Hinduism, still maintain a vibrant pantheon but may emphasize personal spirituality and the interconnectedness of divine manifestations. While ancient polytheism often focused on civic and communal worship, contemporary practices can be more individualized and diverse in expression.

A:The religious beliefs of the ancient Romans were similar, but not identical, to those of the ancient Greeks. It was a thoroughly polytheistic religion, with several gods unknown to the Greeks. The Romans also relied on shamans, especially for foretelling the future, whereas the Greeks relied on oracles for this purpose. After Christianity became dominant in Italy, the Christians referred to the mainly rural Italians who remained faithful to the old gods as 'pagans', a pejorative term that implied they were too unsophisticated to understand the 'true' religion of Christianity.
