O colégio dos sêxviros – religião e poder em evidência

Abstract

By the examination of the seviri’s activities present in the roman epigraphic monuments, we see the largest complicity between religion and the politic power. Freedmen are the members of this college and an epigraphic evidence (IRCP 73) of Balsa, a civitas in the south of Lusitania, shows us how a sevir thanks the goddess Fortuna for his election, with the promised organisation of pleasing events.
