About This Tool

Pontifex Maximus was the highest priestess of the Roman priesthood. It was the most important post in the religion in ancient Rome, originally reserved for Roman nobles, and it wasn’t until 254 BC that the first civilian high priest appeared. In the early days of the Roman Republic, it was strictly a religious position, which became increasingly politicized until Augustus converted it to the throne.

In times of political turmoil, sometimes Pontifex Maximus’s presence can bring peace to the hearts and minds of ordinary people. The random tool generates a list of 25 Pontifex maximus, including those who serve the Kingdom and Public Society. You can see specific information about their tenure, brief descriptions, and key responsibilities.
