These articles describe the Religio Romana specifically as practiced today in Nova Roma - our priests, our declaration, the idea of reconstructionism. General articles about the Religio Romana can be found at Category:Religio Romana.

Sometimes called "Roman Paganism", the modern practice of the Cultus Deorum is an attempt to reconstruct the ancient religion of the Romans as closely as possible, making as few concessions to modern sensibilities as possible. As with other forms of historical reconstructionist paganism, every attempt is made to rely on actual historical and archaeological evidence, and interpolations are made only when the primary sources are silent, and then we strive to be consistent with them.

[edit] Official Mailing List

[edit] Starting with the Cultus Deorum today

Because of the principles of reconstructionism, almost everything that can be said about the historical Cultus is also true about the modern Cultus. Reading about the Numa tradition, the Lararium and Household worship would be a good start.
