About this title

Synopsis

El emperador Heliog�balo debe este nombre a la historiograf�a antigua. Su nombre es Varius Avitus y al llegar al trono (el 16 de mayo del 218) toma el nombre oficial de Imp. Caes. M. Aurelius Antoninus. La tradici�n atribuye a este emperador la introducci�n en Roma de un culto de origen sirio: el del dios El Gabal, un dios sem�tico, identificado con el Sol, y as� llamado: Deus Sol Elagabal. En este estudio, el autor propone que, en realidad, el culto fue introducido antes, cuando la dinast�a siria de los Severos reina en Roma. Aunque es verdad que Heliog�balo potenci� extraordinariamente este culto, asoci�ndose al dios del que era sacerdos amplissimus desde el el a�o 218 hasta el 220. Es en este lapso de tiempo cuando se multiplican las muestras de devoci�n a este dios en inscripciones y monedas. Tambi�n se aborda aqu� la cuesti�n de la continuidad de este culto a lo largo del siglo III d.C.
