MARS Mars, the god of war, is regarded as the father of the Roman people because his son is Romulus. Romulus is the founder of Rome. Because of Mars, Romans are known to be violent and find fighting to be entertainment. Social Status is also very important in Rome. In order to thank Mars, Romans made him an altar, a temple, and they have festivals in March for him.

Roman myths about their gods and goddesses were based off on the Greek gods and goddesses. Roman mythology came 1000 years after Greek mythology. Even though they were based off of the Greek myths, there are differences. Personal differences, traits, appearances. Roman myths were found in the book Aeneid by Virgil. Ex. In Greek myths, Zeus was worshipped the most. In Roman myths, Mars was worshipped the most. THE ORIGINS OF ROMAN MYTHS
