  • Tempestas (en llatí Tempestas) va ser, segons la mitologia romana, la deessa que personificava les tempestats. Com passa amb altres deïtats que es refereixen al temps, era freqüent la forma plural, Tempestates. Ciceró va fer algunes consideracions sobre si els fenòmens naturals com ara l'arc de sant Martí o els núvols havien de ser considerats divins, i explicava que els romans havien consagrat com una divinitat la Tempestas. Luci Corneli Escipió va dedicar un temple a Tempestates l'any 259 aC, segons consta al seu epitafi, encara que Ovidi dóna el nom del temple en singular. Corneli Escipió s'havia vist sorprès per una tempesta i va quedar aïllat amb la seva flota a Còrsega. Va demanar a la deessa la seva salvació, i per complir el vot va construir el temple. Ovidi diu que es va consagrar el dia 6 de juny, però als Fasti apareix marcat el 23 de desembre. El temple a la deessa era prop de la Porta Capena, potser proper a la tomba dels Escipions, i tenia veïnatge amb els temples de Mart i de Minerva. Durant aquells anys es van aixecar diversos temples per reconèixer el valor sagrat de l'aigua a més del temple de la deessa Tempestas. Gai Lutaci Catul va construir un temple en honor de Juturna, una nimfa marina, a la que havia invocat abans de la Batalla d'Egusa contra Hannó el Gran, al Camp de Mart, i un temple a Fontus construït durant una guerra a Còrsega l'any 231 aC.

  • In ancient Roman religion, Tempestas (Latin tempestas: "season, weather; bad weather; storm, tempest") is a goddess of storms or sudden weather. As with certain other nature and weather deities, the plural form Tempestates is common. Cicero, in discussing whether natural phenomena such as rainbows and clouds should be regarded as divine, notes that the Tempestates had been consecrated as deities by the Roman people. A temple (aedes or delubrum) was dedicated to the Tempestates (given in the singular by Ovid) by L. Cornelius Scipio in 259 BC, as recorded by his epitaph. Scipio had been caught in a storm with his fleet off Corsica, and the building of the temple was in fulfillment of a vow made in asking for deliverance. Ovid gives the dedication day as June 1, but it appears as December 23 in the Fasti Antiates Maiores; this latter date may mark a renovation, or there may have been more than one temple to the Tempestates. The temple vowed in 259 was located in Regio I, perhaps near the Tomb of the Scipios, and was connected with the temples of Mars and Minerva there. William Warde Fowler saw a pattern of temple dedications during this period that acknowledged water as a divine force, including the Temple of Juturna vowed in 241 by Lutatius Catulus, and the Temple of Fons during the Corsican war of 231. Black sheep were sacrificed at her temple. (en)
