Honos - Mythology. Roman God of honor, chivalry, and justice, particularly as displayed by soldiers. Honos was often called upon for support in military conflicts, often in prayers also offered to the goddess Virtus. Temples were built in his honor by leaders after successful battles against enemies. One stood in the city of Pompeii. On coins, Honos was often pictured as a young man carrying a spear and a cornucopia.
