Gaius Cordius Symmachus: quick link to foreign priesthoods

{{LanguageBar | Priests (Nova Roma)}}

The public rites of the [[Religio Romana]] were performed and controlled by a number of different priestly collegia and other special priests and magistrates. Those priestly organizations that ranked below the collegia were known as sodalicia, and there were many "independent" priests of various cults who bore the title sacerdos. In addition, there were a number of priesthoods of well-established "foreign" cults (such as the cult of [[Isis]] and [[Serapis]]). For a list of current Foreign Priesthoods of these "foreign cults" within Nova Roma, see [[Foreign priesthoods (Nova Roma)|Foreign priesthoods in Nova Roma]]. Some of these cults were initiatory, and were called "Mysteries" (such as the [[Mysteries of Mithras]]). [[Nova Roma]] has reinstated these ancient Priesthoods as part of our effort to reconstruct Roman religion and culture.

==Joining the Priesthood==

Nova Roma is accepting applications for various Priesthoods. If you are interested in helping to rebuild the Religio Romana and the worship of the ancient [[:Category:Roman Gods|Roman deities]] on an official public basis, we would be pleased to hear from you. The Priesthoods in Nova Roma are open to both men and women, with the exception of the [[Vestals (Nova Roma)|Vestals]]. As Priesthood is an important position of responsibility we do ask that you read the guidelines for applications before applying. Any questions about Priesthood should be directed to the [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)|Collegium Pontificum]].

If you would like to become a Priest or Priestess of Nova Roma, please submit an [http://www.novaroma.org/religio_romana/guidelines.html Application].

==Offices of the Public Religio Romana==

The [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)|Collegium Pontificum]] (College of Pontiffs)

The Collegium Pontificum consists of fifteen priests who serve the public rites of the State religion and have general authority to determine the structure and nature of both the public rites and the priesthoods themselves. They act as the general oversight committee for the public rites of the Religio Romana and appoint members of the various Priesthoods. Some specific administrative duties of the Collegium include: advising the [[Senate (Nova Roma)|Senate]] on religious matters, setting the dates of religious festivals, organizing and assisting the Priesthood, and acting as the final arbiters of Sacred Law and religious disputes.

===Pontifex Maximus===
The [[Pontifex Maximus (Nova Roma)|Pontifex Maximus]] acts as the Speaker for the Collegium Pontificum, and oversees the [[Comitia Curiata (Nova Roma)|Comitia Curiata]] and the Vestals. ''1 position; 1 filled.''

===[[Rex Sacrorum (Nova Roma)|Rex Sacrorum]] / [[Regina Sacrorum (Nova Roma)|Regina Sacrorum]]===

The Rex and Regina Sacrorum (King/Queen of the Sacred) are a legally married couple that perform various public rites and make announcements of Festival days. First among the Priests and members of the Collegium Pontificum, but subordinate to the Pontifex Maximus. The Rex and Regina Sacrorum may hold no other religious or political posts. ''2 positions; 0 filled; 2 available.''

===Pontifices===

{{Table_Pontifices}}
''(15 positions; 10 filled; 5 available)''

==Flamines==

The Flamines are thirteen priests who served specific deities - though they are allowed to worship other deities as well. The Flamines hold public rites on the days sacred to their deity, and oversee the general worship of that deity. The Flamines are present in the Collegium Pontificum.

A priesthood of six women who guard the Sacred Hearth of Rome. They oversee the cult of [[Vesta]], Goddess of the Hearth and Fire, and lead public rites sacred to Vesta. The duties of the Vestals included maintaining the fire in the Sacred Hearth of Rome, and making [[Mola Salsa]] (sacred cakes made from spelt flour used in public rites.)

The Vestals also guarded some sacred objects, including the [[Palladium]] (an ancient image of Pallas Athene said to have been rescued from Troy). In ancient Rome the Vestals were virgins — in Nova Roma this has been replaced by a voluntary vow of chastity for the duration of office. Until Nova Roma has a central hearth, the Vestals each keep a Sacred Flame as a symbol of the Sacred Hearth of Rome. The Vestals receive great public respect for their work, and are entitled to be proceeded by Lictors.

'''Chief Vestal''': Position open

The Chief Vestal oversees the efforts of the Vestals, and is present in the Collegium Pontificum.

{{Table Vestales}}
''(six positions, two filled, four available)''

* Vespasia Pollia
* Prima Lucilla Cornelia Fortunata
* Gaia Iulia Caesaria Victorina

==Collegium Augurum (College of Augures)==

Nine priests who take [[auspices]] and create [[templum|templa]], or sacred spaces. The Collegium Augurium is the second rank of priestly colleges. The duties of the Augurs include taking auspices before military and political actions, consecrating the sites of temples and shrines, overseeing the laws of augury ([[ius augurium]] — the discipline or art of augury itself) and advising the Senate.

===Active Augures===

{{Table Augures}}

''(nine positions, two filled, seven available (five plebeian, two patrician))''

===Augures Emeriti===
* [[Flavius Vedius Germanicus (Nova Roma)|Flavius Vedius Germanicus]]
* Caius Aelius Ericius
* Marcus Gladius Saevus
* Damianus Lucianus Dexippus

==Septemviri Epulones==

Seven priests who oversee the organization of public religious feasts. The Epulones arrange the Epulum Iovis — (feast of Jupiter which is attended by the Senate and People, and presided over by the images of the [[Capitoline]] deities), as well as the public banquets at other festivals and games. The Epulones are one of the four major colleges of priests, and have sacred as well as organizational duties.

''(seven positions, seven open)''

==Sodales Fratres Arvales (The Arval Brethren)==

Twelve priests who compose the oldest priestly college in Rome. The Arval Brethren offer public sacrifices for the fertility of the fields, and preside over the worship of the Dea Dia, a Goddess of Grain and Cereal crops.

The rites of the Arval Brethren are one of the few virtually complete sets of Roman rituals to survive antiquity. In ancient Rome the Arval Brethren met in a grove sacred to the Dea Dia, where there was a circular temple and bath house. Until Nova Roma is able to provide such a central place, the Arval Brethren are to gather yearly in person if possible.

; Magister (President of the Arval Brethren): This position is elected yearly among the Arval Brethren.
; Flamen Arvales (Assistant to the President: This position is elected yearly among the Arval Brethren.
; Sacerdotes Arvales: twelve positions open

==Sodales Luperci==
The Luperci ("Wolfmen" Priests who officiate at the Lupercalia) were responsible for purification and fertility, and the festival of Lupercalia is a time of fun and revelry. The exact number of Lupercii is not recorded and may have varied over time.

===Luperci Quinctiales (or Quintilii)===

:(founded by Romulus): Positions open

===Luperci Fabiani (or Fabianii)===

: (Founded by Remus): Positions open

==Sodales Salii==

Twenty-four "leaping priests" of [[Mars]] who who dance in procession during public festivals of Mars. The Salii are responsible for keeping the sacred ancilia (shields) and dancing and singing the public festivals sacred to Mars. The Salii in antiquity wore archaic armor and carried arms, and would stop their procession at certain places to carry out ritual dances and sing.

===Sodales Palatini===

A ''sodalis Palatinus'' is particularly devoted to Mars Gravidus. There are twelve sodales Palatini:

* [[Marcus Martianus Gangalius (Nova Roma)|Marcus Martianus Gangalius]]
* [[Lucius Curtius Paullus (Nova Roma)|Lucius Curtius Paullus]]

===Sodales Collini (or Agonenses)===

Twelve priests particularly devoted to Quirinus

==Collegium Fetalium (College of the Fetiales)==

Twenty priests who represent Rome in foreign diplomacy and the making of treaties and declarations of war. In Nova Roma the Fetiales act as diplomats with other nations and organizations, and are therefore expected to be well versed in Nova Roma laws and policy.

* [[Quintus Caecilius Metellus Pius Postumianus (Nova Roma)|Quintus Caecilius Metellus Pius Postumianus]]

''(20 positions; 1 filled; 19 available)''

==Quindecimviri Sacris Faciundis==
One of four major priestly colleges. Fifteen priests who are in charge of the Sibylline Books (and their restoration).

''(15 positions; 15 available)''

==Sacerdotes (minor priesthoods)==

There are a vast number of major and minor Roman deities that were served by "lesser known" Priests and Priestesses in the ancient Roman world. The Sacerdotes are the lesser "everyday" priesthoods that tend the temples and shrines, indextain the worship of a deity, and who assist the populace with their worship of that deity.

Within Nova Roma the Sacerdotes that oversee the worship of deities that do not have their own Flamen or Collegia (or who assist Flamens in the worship of specific God or Goddess). There is, in essence, no limit to the number of Sacerdotes that may serve a deity.

Please note that since there are many Gods and Goddesses from the Roman World, all the possible Sacerdos Priesthood positions cannot be listed here. If there is a Roman deity that you are interested in serving both publicly and privately, you are welcome to apply to be an official Sacerdos of that deity by applying to the Collegium Pontificum.

===Apollinis Aedis Sacerdotes===

Foreign priesthoods (Nova Roma)

Gaius Cordius Symmachus:

{{LanguageBar| Foreign Priesthoods (Nova Roma) }}

[[Category:Religio Romana (Nova Roma)]]

For traditional State Priests and Priesthoods within Nova Roma, see [[Priests (Nova Roma)|Priests and Priesthoods]].

While the goal of Nova Roma is to reconstruct the traditional Religio Romana, we understand that the ancient "foreign" religions were an important part of the cosmopolitan Roman experience for centuries. Therefore, as part of our effort to reconstruct Roman religion and culture, Nova Roma makes foreign cults and priesthoods available within our public community.

Foreign cults may only become a part of public Nova Roman community through formal application to the Senate and Collegium Pontificum of Nova Roma. These cults are separate and autonomous from the Religio Romana. However they are subject to Nova Roman law, decisions by 'Senatus Consultum' issued by the Nova Roman Senate, and to 'Decreta' issued by the Collegium Pontificum. Once accepted, foreign cults must submit a report to the Nova Roma Senate and to the Collegium Pontificum once yearly to satisfy modern incorporation requirements.

==APPLYING FOR PRIESTHOOD==

Nova Roma will accept applications for various 'foreign' and provincial priesthoods. As priesthoods available to the Citizens of Nova Roma are important, we do ask that applicants for foreign and provincial priesthoods meet the following guidelines. Any questions about Priesthood should be directed to the Collegium Pontificum.

If you would like to become a Priest or Priestess of Nova Roma, please submit an Application.

==FOREIGN CULTS==

The "foreign" cults include religions that came to Rome from other countries and were never completely adopted as part of the official Religio Romana, as well as the cults of deities that were specific to the various provinciae. Generally such priesthoods are a ''sacerdos'' position, unless there is another specific historical title.

===Greco-Roman Cults===

Apollo

Apollinis Templi Sacerdotes (priests who tend the temple of Apollo)

Andrea Gladia Kyrinia

Bacchic Mysteries

==Foreign Provincial Sacerdotes (minor priesthoods)==

As with the Roman deities there are a vast number of Provincial deities that were part of the Religio Romana on a local level only. These priesthoods would include the worship of deities from Provinces including Britannia, Gallia, Germania, Spain, Numidia, etc. The Foreign Sacerdotes are the lesser "everyday" priesthoods that tended Provincial temples and shrines, maintain the worship of a deity, and who assist the populace with their worship of that deity.

As with the Roman deities there are a vast number of Provincial deities that were part of the Religio Romana on a local level only. These priesthoods would include the worship of deities from Provinces including Britannia, Gallia, Germania, Spain, Numidia, etc. The Foreign Sacerdotes are the lesser "everyday" priesthoods that tended Provincial temples and shrines, maintain the worship of a deity, and who assist the populace with their worship of that deity.

THIS NEEDS TO BE REWORKED AND UPDATED

While the goal of Nova Roma is to reconstruct the traditional Religio Romana, we understand that the ancient "foreign" religions were an important part of the cosmopolitan Roman experience for centuries. Therefore, as part of our effort to reconstruct Roman religion and culture, Nova Roma makes foreign cults and priesthoods available within our public community.

Foreign cults may only become a part of public Nova Roman community through formal application to the Senate and Collegium Pontificum of Nova Roma. These cults are separate and autonomous from the Religio Romana. However they are subject to Nova Roman law, decisions by 'Senatus Consultum' issued by the Nova Roman Senate, and to 'Decreta' issued by the Collegium Pontificum. Once accepted, foreign cults must submit a report to the Nova Roma Senate and to the Collegium Pontificum once yearly to satisfy modern incorporation requirements.

==APPLYING FOR PRIESTHOOD==

Nova Roma will accept applications for various 'foreign' and provincial priesthoods. As priesthoods available to the Citizens of Nova Roma are important, we do ask that applicants for foreign and provincial priesthoods meet the following guidelines. Any questions about Priesthood should be directed to the Collegium Pontificum.

If you would like to become a Priest or Priestess of Nova Roma, please submit an Application.

==FOREIGN CULTS==

The "foreign" cults include religions that came to Rome from other countries and were never completely adopted as part of the official Religio Romana, as well as the cults of deities that were specific to the various provinciae. Generally such priesthoods are a ''sacerdos'' position, unless there is another specific historical title.

==Foreign Provincial Sacerdotes (minor priesthoods)==

As with the Roman deities there are a vast number of Provincial deities that were part of the Religio Romana on a local level only. These priesthoods would include the worship of deities from Provinces including Britannia, Gallia, Germania, Spain, Numidia, etc. The Foreign Sacerdotes are the lesser "everyday" priesthoods that tended Provincial temples and shrines, maintain the worship of a deity, and who assist the populace with their worship of that deity.

THIS NEEDS TO BE REWORKED AND UPDATED

While the goal of Nova Roma is to reconstruct the traditional Religio Romana, we understand that the ancient "foreign" religions were an important part of the cosmopolitan Roman experience for centuries. Therefore, as part of our effort to reconstruct Roman religion and culture, Nova Roma makes foreign cults and priesthoods available within our public community.

Foreign cults may only become a part of public Nova Roman community through formal application to the Senate and Collegium Pontificum of Nova Roma. These cults are separate and autonomous from the Religio Romana. However they are subject to Nova Roman law, decisions by 'Senatus Consultum' issued by the Nova Roman Senate, and to 'Decreta' issued by the Collegium Pontificum. Once accepted, foreign cults must submit a report to the Nova Roma Senate and to the Collegium Pontificum once yearly to satisfy modern incorporation requirements.

==APPLYING FOR PRIESTHOOD==

Nova Roma will accept applications for various 'foreign' and provincial priesthoods. As priesthoods available to the Citizens of Nova Roma are important, we do ask that applicants for foreign and provincial priesthoods meet the following guidelines. Any questions about Priesthood should be directed to the Collegium Pontificum.

If you would like to become a Priest or Priestess of Nova Roma, please submit an Application.

==FOREIGN CULTS==

The "foreign" cults include religions that came to Rome from other countries and were never completely adopted as part of the official Religio Romana, as well as the cults of deities that were specific to the various provinciae. Generally such priesthoods are a ''sacerdos'' position, unless there is another specific historical title.
