Ive seen some call Silvanus Mars-Silvanus and its kind of given me a theory on a popular Roman myth. Do you think Silvanus was the main god in the Romulus and Remus myth? Because the two were raised by a wolf and then taken in by Farmers two things that are associated with Silvanus? Not to mention their mothers Name was Reyha Silvia and she had her interaction with a deity in a sacred orchard. It makes sense that the higher ups in Rome would like to separate Mars-Silvanus into two separate deities.
@@MondomondoTime I haven't come across that one, but given Mars was said to be their father in one myth, I think it's more likely the Romans were trying to tie Mars into their foundation myth. I have a separate episode on Mars!
