(health, prosperity, well being), in some degree synonymous with the Greek Hygeia, in Roman mythology, was primarily the goddess of physical health, but afterwards also of the public weal or prosperity of the state. A temple was built in her honor after the conclusion of the Samnite war by C. Junius Bubulcus.
