Pre-Olympian Deities
Before the Olympian gods under Zeus rose to power, the Titans ruled in Greek mythology. This older generation of deities, often depicted as gigantic and fearsome beings, shaped the cosmogonic myths. They are the children of Gaia (Earth) and Uranus (Sky) and include figures such as Cronus, Rhea, Oceanus and Themis.
The Titanomachy, the great war between the Titans and the Olympians, is one of the central epic narratives. Although the Titans are often less well-known than Zeus and his siblings, their depiction in figurine form is impressive in its archaic power and offers a deeper perspective on the mythology.
Roman God Figurines
The Roman pantheon is closely connected to Greek mythology, as many deities were adopted from the Greek world and adapted to Roman culture. Our Roman god figurines represent the protectors of Rome and embody the martial, state-centred spirit of the empire.
While Greek gods were often portrayed as emotional and very human, their Roman counterparts represented the ideal of duty (Pietas) and moral obligation to the state. To fully understand the essence of the Roman Empire, you should explore these Roman deity figurines, which mirror the highest ideals of law, order and civic virtue.
The most important gods of the Roman Empire (often linked to the Capitoline Triad):
- Jupiter: Supreme god, equivalent to Zeus and ruler of the state.
- Juno: Goddess of women, marriage and protector of the empire (equivalent to Hera).
- Mars: Important god of war and father of the mythical founder Romulus (equivalent to Ares).
- Neptune: God of the sea and waters (equivalent to Poseidon).
- Minerva: Goddess of wisdom, crafts and strategic warfare (equivalent to Athena).
- Venus: Goddess of love and beauty, ancestral mother of the Julian family line (equivalent to Aphrodite).

Frequently Asked Questions
Which deity symbolises love?
The central figure symbolising love in Roman mythology is Venus. She embodies beauty, sexuality and fertility and was venerated as the ancestral mother of the Julian dynasty. Her Greek counterpart is Aphrodite, goddess of love and desire, said to have risen from sea foam. Both figures represent the power and allure of love within the ancient divine world.
Which deities are associated with the underworld?
In Roman mythology, Pluto (also known as Dis Pater) is the ruler of the underworld and the realm of the dead. He governs the land of shadows and is also the god of wealth hidden beneath the earth. His Greek equivalent is Hades, who rules over the realm of the dead.
Are the figurines suitable for outdoor use?
Suitability for outdoor use depends primarily on the material. Since most of our figurines are made of polyresin with a bronzed finish, they offer excellent detail and stability. However, polyresin is not fully weatherproof. To preserve the appearance and especially the bronzed surface over time, and to protect it from fading or moisture damage, we recommend placing these figurines indoors or in sheltered outdoor areas such as covered terraces or loggias.
