In ancient Rome, the Mother Goddess was primarily embodied by the goddess Cybele, who was known as Magna Mater, or "Great Mother." The cult of Cybele was originally from Phrygia, in what is now modern-day Turkey, and was introduced to Rome around 204 BCE during the Second Punic War. The Romans believed that bringing her cult to Rome would help them defeat Hannibal.
