The most important Roman goddesses were Juno, the queen of gods, patron goddess of Rome and the women of Rome; Vesta, the goddess of the hearth and the household; Ceres, the goddess of agriculture and grain crops; Diana, the goddess the hunt, the moon and childbirth; Venus, goddess of love, beauty, sex, fertility and prosperity ; and Minerva, the goddess of wisdom music, poetry, commerce, weaving, crafts, and medicine and magic These goddesses were part of the Di Consentes; the twelve major Roman deities which came in six male-female pairings.

Some other Roman goddesses were: Dea Dia, the goddess of growth; Feronia, the goddess of wildlife, fertility, health and abundance; Fortuna, the goddess of fortune; Fides, the goddess of trust; Libera, the wife of Liber, they were the gods of viticulture, patrons of the plebeians, they were part of the Aventine triad which was worshipped by the plebeians; Flora, goddess of flowers and spring; Lucina, another the goddess of childbirth; Luna, the goddess of the moon; Mater Matuta, the goddess of the dawn; Magna Mater, the great Mother; Ops, and earth goddess and a goddess of fertility; Salus, the goddess of security and well-being; Terra (or Tellus or Terra Mater), a goddess of the earth;

Juno and Minerva, together with Jupiter and was part of the Capitoline Triad, three supreme deities who were worshiped at the Temple of Jupiter Optimum Maximus, Rome's largest temple which stood on the Capitoline Hill. The gods of this triad was the tutelary gods of the Roman state

Ceres and Libera, together with Liber were part of the Aventine Triad (or the plebeian Triad or the agricultural Triad). Their temple was on the Aventine Hill, which was associated with the plebeians (the commoners). They were the patrons of the plebeians and were a focus for plebeian identity in opposition to the patrician aristocracy. It is thought that this triad was created in opposition to the Capitoline Triad because its gods were the tutelary gods of the Roman state at a time when the state was monopolised by the patrician aristocracy.

What are the similarities between Greek and Roman gods?

Both Greek and Roman gods are the same in essence, but have different aspects. Roman gods were taken from Greek gods, but tend to be more warlike and disciplined. Just like the Greek and Roman cultures, the Roman gods were more warlike, disclipined and honorable. The Greek gods on the other hand, tended to merge into the more artistic creative side. However, the main similarity between Greek and Roman gods is simply this: They are both the gods of whatever they were in the other culture. For example, Hera from Greek myths, is still the goddess of marriage in her Roman aspect, or Juno. Another example is Aphrodite, she is still the goddess of love in her Roman aspect, Venus.
