  • this particular religious cult ritual of Cybele was not Roman at all but from the East. Most probably originated amongst the Lycians or peoples who lived in ancient Near East.

  • @blackarawak83 the Romans adopted other peoples religions, so much so there are only a few distinct Roman Gods, and even those are difficult to distinguish whether or not they were 'Roman' or Etruscan and Samnite, during the late Roman Republic and throughout the Empire Era, worship of Cybele and Mithras had almost totally replaced the original 'Roman Religion' which was really just copied from the Greeks
