Summary
Description Roman goddess Victoria in Arretine Ware fragment.jpg |
Español:
Victoria (Latin pronunciation: [wɪkˈtoːrɪ.a]), in ancient Roman religion, was the personified goddess of victory.[2] She is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Nike, and was associated with Bellona. She was adapted from the Sabine agricultural goddess Vacuna and had a temple on the Palatine Hill. The goddess Vica Pota was also sometimes identified with Victoria. Victoria is often described as a daughter of Pallas and Styx, and as a sister of Zelus, Kratos, and Bia.
