Orbona

Orbona

Orbona is the Roman goddess who protects parents who are bereaved of their children and parents of ill children. The first mention of Orbona is unknown. She appears in the Arnobius Against The Heathen V4 written by Arnobius. Said Orbona is the goddess who takes care of parents who are bereaved of their children. There is no description of the appearance or related presence in the Roman mythology. Orbona is a unique figure in Roman religion. She stands apart and does not derive directly from any Greek goddess. Her name is barely seen in the present because she has a particular role to protect only the father and mother who lose their child to death.
