WHAT DOES CULTUS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Cult (religious practice)

Outward religious practice in worship is expressed through religious rituals. Cult in this sense is literally the "care" owed to the God or gods and the temples, shrines, or churches. In the specific context of Greek hero cult, Carla Antonaccio has written, "The term cult identifies a pattern of ritual behavior in connection with specific objects, within a framework of spatial and temporal coordinates. Rituals would include prayer, sacrifice, votive offerings, competitions, processions and construction of monuments. Some degree of recurrence in place and repetition over time of ritual action is necessary for a cult to be enacted, to be practiced" Cult is embodied in ritual and ceremony. Its present or former presence is made concrete in temples, shrines and churches, and cult images and votive deposits at votive sites.
