Roman Divinities and Their Personal Files

Roman Divinities - Who Should be the Supreme Ruler?

INTRODUCTION

We know that the Romans believed that the gods and goddesses controlled all aspects of human life. What types of people were these gods and goddesses really? How did they get the duty of ruling everything? What qualities did they possess to allow them to be good rulers?

For this assignment, you are going to be completing some basic research about a Roman god / goddess and his or her influence in the Roman world. You will be asked to put yourself in the place / position of your Roman god or goddess. You will create a portfolio of information about your god / goddess and participate in a class round-table discussion trying to convince your classmates that you - as a god / goddess - should be the supreme ruler of the universe. Then each class votes to see who should be the supreme ruler of the Roman universe.
