Extrait du document
(Statua Mater; Statis Mater)
Roman A goddess called upon to help protect
against fire. Specifically, people placed a statue to this
lesser goddess in the Roman Forum, located between
the Palatine and Capitoline hills, and a central area in
the ancient city. Here the goddess could protect the
city from the threat of fire and other damage at night.
Stata Mater also guarded a city fire that burned there
on the community hearth.
Stata Mater was closely associated with Vulcan,
Roman god of fire and blacksmiths, and Vesta, goddess
of the home and the household hearth.
