Roman religion is not only the large temples and great artistic statues but also a very personal form of devotion. Away from the requirements of the state cult, it fulfilled the needs of believers in very individual forms and created a very different form of archaeological records.
This day school will look at the archaeological remains that allow us to identify Roman followers of the Isis and Serapis cult in the everyday archaeological record and what it tells us about the popularity of these deities.
