An ancient Roman god. He is the deification of a marker stone that indicates the boundaries of farmland, but his importance can be seen from the fact that he was enshrined in the temple of Jupiter Maximus Optimus, the supreme god of Rome, on the Capitoline Hill. In ancient times, he was thought to have been a secondary sovereign deity who assisted the supreme deity by ensuring the fair distribution of wealth.

古代ローマの神。農地の境界を示す標石を神格化した存在だが,カピトリウム丘上のローマの最高神ユピテル・マクシムス・オプティムスの神殿中に合祀されていたことからもその重要性がうかがわれる。古くは富の公正な分配を司ることで最高神を補佐する副次的主権神であったと考えられる。
