The supreme deity of the Roman pantheon, mighty Jupiter was a god of sky and thunder, whose symbols were the oak tree and the eagle. As the god of the sky, Jupiter commanded lightning, thunder, and storms. Like Zeus, he wielded lightning bolts as weapons. He ruled as the dominant member of a triumvirate called, the Capitoline Triad, which included his consort Juno, and daughter Minerva. Jupiter bore many similarities to Zeus, the king of the Greek deities from whom he was adapted. Unlike Zeus, however, Jupiter was explicitly linked to a specific political entity... Rome. From the great temple erected in his honor on the Capitoline Hill in Rome, Jupiter presided over the state and its ever-expanding empire. Rather than taking an active part in battles, however, Jupiter was imagined to oversee and control them. More than any other deity, Jupiter held the fate of the Roman state in the balance.
