The Cults of Lanuvium is a scholarly work by Arthur Ernest Gordon that explores the ancient religious practices of the town of Lanuvium, located in central Italy. The book delves into the history and mythology of Lanuvium, examining the various cults and deities that were worshipped there, including the goddess Juno Sospita and the god Jupiter Lanuvinus. Gordon draws on a wide range of sources, including inscriptions, coins, and literary texts, to reconstruct the religious beliefs and practices of the Lanuvians. He also discusses the social and political context in which these cults operated, highlighting the role of religion in shaping the identity and cohesion of the community. Overall, The Cults of Lanuvium provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Roman religion and the ways in which it was practiced in a specific local context.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
