Abstract

Some recent finds, among which the Arronches inscription stands out, as well as new reading proposals for some votive inscriptions, provide the ground for the analysis of the documentation regarding the religion of the southern Lusitania in Roman times. This is an unequable reality, of which three segments are analyzed: the Olisipo territory, the northern Alentejo and the extreme South of the Roman province. Through the record of the theonyms and information concerning the worshippers, we intend to outline a summary profile for each region, therefore obtaining a short essay on the sociology of religions in the Roman period.
