Danubian Horsemen
The Danubian Horseman cult remains shrouded in mystery for archaeologists and historians. While its practices and beliefs are still being pieced together, it’s clear it held deep significance for the people who followed it.
The Danubian Horseman cult flourished along the northern frontier of the Roman Empire, particularly in the provinces of Pannonia Inferior, Moesia Superior, and Dacia, which followed the Danube River (the Danubian Limes). While its roots are likely local, the cult also displays influences from Eastern religions and the Roman veneration of the Dioscuri, the twin horsemen Castor and Pollux.
