Who is the Roman Goddess of Peace?
Pax means peace in Latin. More commonly known as Peace in English, and Pax is the Roman goddess of peace, derived from the ancient Greek Eirene. Pax is considered the daughter of the Roman god Jupiter and the goddess Justice. In addition, Pax is also the embodiment of peace in Roman religion. According to legend, it was probably the emperor Augustus who first recognized Pax as a god. The establishment of political calm was very important during Augustus’ reign.
Peace Worship was organized and popular during the reign of Emperor Augustus. And, Augustus used the imagery of Pax to help stabilize the empire after years of turmoil and civil war in the late republic. Augustus built an altar of peace for her at the Martius campus called Ara Pacis, and Emperor Vespasian built a temple for her called Templum Pacis. Pax threw a festival in her honor on January 30. In art, she is often depicted holding out an olive branch as a peace offering, along with staff, cornucopia, corn, and scepter. Pax is also often associated with spring.

Eirene was especially respected by the citizens of Athens. After the victory over Sparta in 375 BC, the Athenians established a cult of peace, erecting an altar to her. After 371 BC, they held an annual state sacrifice in her honor to commemorate that year of mutual peace and erected a votive statue in her honor in the Athens marketplace.

Peace Goddess Sculpture :
The statue was cast in bronze by Cephisodotus the Elder, who was probably the father or uncle of the famous sculptor Praxiteles. It was a statue so beloved by the Athenians that they depicted it on their vases and coins. Although the statue is now unfortunately lost, it was copied into marble by the Romans.
One of the best surviving copies is at the Glyptothek in Munich. This version of Eirene depicts the goddess with a child in her left arm, Plutus, the god of fertility, and the son of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture. The lost right hand of peace once held the scepter. She gazed affectionately at Plutus, who was looking back at her. The statue symbolizes prosperity under the protection of peace. Sculpture constitutes a public appeal to reason.
