520    In ancient Rome, it was believed some humans were 
       transformed into special, empowered beings after death. 
       These deified dead, known as the manes, watched over and 
       protected their surviving family members, possibly even 
       extending those relatives' lives. But unlike the Greek 
       hero-cult, the worship of dead emperors, or the Christian 
       saints, the manes were incredibly inclusive--enrolling 
       even those without social clout, such as women and the 
       poor, among Rome's deities. The Roman afterlife promised 
       posthumous power in the world of the living. While the 
       manes have often been glossed over in studies of Roman 
       religion, this book brings their compelling story to the 
       forefront, exploring their myriad forms and how their 
       worship played out in the context of Roman religion's 
       daily practice. Exploring the place of the manes in Roman 
       society, Charles King delves into Roman beliefs about 
       their powers to sustain life and bring death to 
       individuals or armies, examines the rituals the Romans 
       performed to honor them, and reclaims the vital role the 
       manes played in the ancient Roman afterlife
