| Jun 2, 2016 at 19:58 | comment | added | ktm5124 | I think there was a predecessor to Sol Invictus, called Sol Indiges, which may have been equated with Helios. britannica.com/topic/Sol-Roman-god. I wonder how this overlapped with the worship of Apollo as the sun god. Do you think Apollo was conflated with Sol Indiges? Or were they preeminent during different eras? | |
