This biased view has obscured the fact that, traditionally, law was closely connected to religion and remained so well into the Empire. Building on a variety of sources ? epigraphic, legal, literary, and numismatic ? this book discloses how law and religion shared the same patrons (magistrates and priests) and a common goal (to deal with life?s uncertainties), and how, from the third century B.C., they underwent a process of rationalization. Today, Roman law and religion deserve our admiration because together they supported and consolidated the growing power of Rome. 410 0$aMnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.$pSupplementum.$pHistory and archaeology of classical antiquity ;$vv. 336. 606 $aReligion and law$zRome 606 $aReligion and state$zRome 606 $aEcclesiastical law$zRome 606 $aPriests$xLegal status, laws, etc$zRome 607 $aRome$xReligion 615 0$aReligion and law 615 0$aReligion and state 615 0$aEcclesiastical law 615 0$aPriests$xLegal status, laws, etc. 676 $a344.456/32096 701 $aTellegen-Couperus$b O.
