In ancient Roman religion, Abundantia (Latin pronunciation: [abʊnˈdantɪ.a]), also called Copia,[1] was a divine personification of abundance and prosperity.[2] The name Abundantia means "abundance" in Latin. [3] She would help protect your savings and investments.[4] Abundantia would even assist someone with major purchases.[4] She was among the embodiments of virtues in religious propaganda that cast the emperor as the ensurer of "Golden Age" conditions.[5] Abundantia thus figures in art, cult, and literature, but has little mythology as such. She may have survived in some form in Roman Gaul and medieval France. Abundantia would carry a cornucopia that was filled with grain and coins.[4] She would occasionally leave some of her grain or money at someone's house as a gift.[4]
