Abstract
There was no understanding of "religion" in the Ancient World of Greece and Rome. No such conception as we now hold existed then, no such classificatory component (as in "religion and society") or counterpart (as in "science and religion"), no particularising use (as in "Roman religion"), no pluralising use (as in "religions of the world").
