Abundantia
Roman · deity · early empire · deity
Abundantia is plenty in the act of spilling over — her whole iconography is a horn being emptied rather than held. Like Annona she belongs to the imperial period and to the coinage, where she is one of the regime's standing promises about what its rule produces. She survives the empire: the medieval Lady Abundance who visits houses by night and leaves them prosperous carries her name.
