{{LanguageBar|Pontifex (Nova Roma)}}{{Priesthood articles}} '''''Pontifex''''' is a high priest of the [[Res publica Novae Romae|Nova Roman Republic]]. The title ''pontifex'' comes from the Latin for "bridge builder", a possible allusion to a very early role in placating the gods and spirits associated with the [[Tiber]] River, and in building a spiritual bridge between men and gods. The ''pontifices'' establish the [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)|Collegium Pontificum]] where they elect the ''pontifex maximus''. The '''pontifex maximus''' is the first [[pontifex (Nova Roma)|pontifex]], the president of the [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)|Collegium Pontificum]] and acts as the Speaker for the Collegium, oversees the [[Comitia Curiata (Nova Roma)|comitia curiata]] and the [[Virgo Vestalis (Nova Roma)|Vestals]]. ==Album pontificum== On this page are listed both the current '''pontifices''' and ''pontifices minores'', as well as all the previous ''pontifices'', together with their dates of service, as best known. In some cases, the date on which the [[pontifex (Nova Roma)|pontifex]] left office is unknown. ===Current pontifices=== {{Template:Table Pontifices}} ===List of pontifices maximi of the Nova Roman Republic=== *[[Marcus Cassius Iulianus (Nova Roma)|M.
