Today Porsha Crystal as...

Series 6 Post 14:  Goddess and deified personification of victory in peace or war. She first appears during the first Punic War, seemingly as a Romanised re-naming of Nike, the goddess of victory associated with Rome's Greek allies in the Greek mainland and in Magna Graecia. Thereafter she comes to symbolise Rome's eventual hegemony and right to rule. She is a deified abstraction, entitled to cult but unlike Nike, she has virtually no mythology of her own.

🌸 She was worshipped in Magna Graecia and mainland Greece, and was a subject of Greek myth. Around this time, various Roman war-deities begin to receive the epithet victor (conqueror) or invictus (unconquered). 🌸 Other images show her as human-sized, driving a triumphal war-chariot, or in free-standing statuary, standing on the right-hand palm of a much larger figure, typically Rome's supreme god, Jupiter, or war-god Mars, or Roma, divine personification of the Roman state. 🌸 Winged figures, very often in pairs, representing victory and referred to as winged victories, are common in Roman official iconography, typically hovering high in a composition, and often filling spaces in spandrels or other gaps in architecture. These represent the "spirit of victory" rather than a full-blown deity. Pairs of winged victories continued to appear after the Christianization of the Roman Empire and gradually evolved into depictions of Christian angels. 🌸 It was used to store war-booty, and it hosted the Magna Mater's statue while her own temple was under construction. Victoria had several other shrines throughout Rome. In Imperial era Timgad, victoria victrix (conquering victory) was given credit for Imperial successes.

Series 6 Post 10: Thalia also spelled Thaleia, was one of the Muses, the goddess who presided over comedy and idyllic poetry. In this context her name means "flourishing", because the praises in her songs flourish through time.

🌸 The meaning of his name are from Thalia "the joyous, the flourishing", from Ancient Greek with the meaning of "to flourish, to be verdant'.  🌸 Thalia was portrayed as a young woman with a joyous air, crowned with ivy, wearing boots and holding a comic mask in her hand. Many of her statues also hold a bugle and a trumpet (both used to support the actors' voices in ancient comedy), or occasionally a shepherd's staff or a wreath of ivy. 🌸 Thalia was the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the eighth-born of the nine Muses called Euterpe, Polyhymnia, Urania, Clio, Erato, Calliope, Terpsichore, Melpomene. According to Apollodorus, she and Apollo were the parents of the Corybantes.  🌸 Thalia was the Muse of Comedy and Playful Poetry. She was represented as a maiden crowned with ivy, with a comedy mask in one hand and a garland in the other. She sometimes had a shepherd's crook (pedum) because she was also the muse of shepherds and goats.

Beginner's Guide to: Roman Mythology

Beginner’s Guide to: Roman Mythology

Roman mythology and Greek mythology are very similar, but there are still some differences between the two.

A lot of the main gods overlap with the Greek gods but don’t share the same names. Instead, a lot of their Roman counterparts are named after our planets. The Romans picked these names to bestow on some of the gods and goddesses because these planets are bright enough to be seen from…
