The Roman goddess of victory, corresponding to Nike in Greek mythology. Her origins are unknown, but she has been revered as a symbol of Rome since the Republican period, and has been worshiped alongside Jupiter and Mars. Her temple on the Palatine Hill is famous, and statues of her as a winged goddess were placed at the Gate of Rome and Ostia. A statue that Augustus had installed in the Senate chamber was removed under pressure from a Christian emperor in the 4th century, but non-Christian Romans such as Symmachus protested against this, which is well known.

ローマ神話の勝利の女神。ギリシア神話のニケに相応する。起源は不詳だが共和政期からローマの象徴としてあがめられ,ユピテル,マルスなどと並んで祭られた。パラティヌス丘中腹の神殿が有名で,翼をもつ女神としてローマやオスティアの門などにも彫像がおかれた。アウグストゥスが元老院議場に設けた像は4世紀キリスト教徒皇帝の圧力で除去されたが,シンマクスら非キリスト教ローマ人がこれに抗議した事件は有名である。【松本 宣郎】
