She and her colleagues have produced a book full of learning and insights into the beliefs and practices of so long ago ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Arrived quickly and in pristine condition *by P***Z on September 27, 2022* For those of you who are interested in Roman religions and ancient documents, this is a worthwhile purchase. I appreciate the speed with which it was delivered and the perfect condition of the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Book about Romans, by Romans *by on July 27, 2004* This book (volume 2 of a 2 volume work) is an excellent selection of passages writen by Romans and their contemporaries about Romans and their religions. Each translation is preceded by a short description of the context of the passage, and references. Included are paragraphs from books, quotes from lost works, inscriptions from monuments, publicly posted legal announcements, and grafitti. It was a breath of fresh air for me, since the contemporary source material in this subject is so sparse that most books on ancient religion are a doubtful parade of their authors' opinions. And although the passages from ancient writers are laden with their opinions, with the help of the editors of 'Religions of Rome, vol II' it's obvious and once exposed, revealing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Religions of Rome - Religions of Rome --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/16383600-religions-of-rome-volume-2-a-sourcebook](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/16383600-religions-of-rome-volume-2-a-sourcebook) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
