In Roman mythology, which god is the equivalent of the Greek Zeus?

Hence the name of the largest planet.

Pretty slick that the gods only want the smoke and bones from sacrifices leaving men to feast on the meat.

perhaps that gives some more meaning to the expression "by jove."

Smeghead, Become? We believe you mean became.

Brandywine, Danke for the added information. We love it! Thank You. 😉

I love you Jupiter 💖

His name actually started out as being "Zeus Pitar", which is obviously where "Ju-piter" came from. There are some threads that show the Greeks and Romans alike began these stories based Zeus on God and Hercules as Jesus. But then they fictionalized them both and made them be their own characters and gave them stories/children/etc. distorted for generations and generations until it all became its own mythology.

I love Classical Greco-Roman Mythology. I have an unedited Bullfinch and have read it from cover to cover.

Jesus and Allah will become mythology. Stories of fantasy.
