- In ancient Roman religion, Vica Pota was a goddess whose shrine was located at the foot of the Velian Hill, on the site of the domus of Publius Valerius Publicola. This location would place the temple on the same side of the Velia as the forum and perhaps not far from the Regia. Cicero explains her name as deriving from vincendi atque potiundi, "conquering and gaining mastery. " In the Apocolocyntosis, Vica Pota is the mother of Diespiter; although usually identified with Jupiter, Diespiter is here treated as a separate deity, and in the view of Arthur Bernard Cook should perhaps be regarded as the chthonic Dispater. The festival of Vica Pota was January 5. Asconius identifies her with Victoria, but she is probably an earlier Roman or Italic form of victory goddess that predated Victoria and the influence of Greek Nike; Vica Pota was thus the older equivalent of Victoria but probably not a personification of victory as such. In a conjecture not widely accepted, Ludwig Preller thought that Vica Pota might be identified with the Etruscan divine figure Lasa Vecu.
- Vica Pota: Dea Romana di origine sabina, simboleggia la vittoria - la conquista (dal lat. Vincere - Potiri) la festa veniva celebrata il 5 di gennaio. Il tempio di questa divinità sorgeva sulla Velia un ottavo colle su cui sorgeva Roma e che è stato eliminato durante i lavori per la realizzazione di Via dei Fori Imperiali.
- Vica Pota was een godin in de Romeinse religie, wier heiligdom aan de voet van de Velia was gelegen, namelijk op het domein van de domus van Publius Valerius Publicola. Deze locatie plaatst de tempel aan dezelfde zijde van de Velia als het Forum Romanum, mogelijk niet zo ver van de Regia. Cicero verklaart haar naam als afgeleid van vincendi atque potiundi, "overwinnen en overmeesteren". In de Apocolocyntosis van Seneca is Vica Pota de moeder van Diespiter. Al wordt deze laatste gewoonlijk met Jupiter gelijkgesteld, toch wordt Diespiter hier als een zelfstandige godheid behandeld en zou hij in de optiek van Arthur Bernard Cook misschien moeten aanzien worden als de chtonische god Dis Pater. Asconius stelt haar gelijk aan Victoria, maar waarschijnlijk is zij een vroegere Romeinse of Italische vorm van een overwinningsgodin die aan Victoria voorafging beïnvloed door de Griekse Nikè. Vica Pota was dus het oudere equivalent van Victoria maar dan waarschijnlijk niet de personificatie van overwinning als zodanig. In de minder wijd geaccepteerde veronderstelling van Ludwig Preller is gedacht dat Vica Pota zou zijn gelijk te stellen met de Etruskische goddelijke figuur Lasa Vecu. Het festival van Vica Pota viel op 5 januari.
