For other uses, see Discipline (disambiguation).
Discipline, in Roman mythology, was a minor deity and personification of the discipline. The very word discipline is Latin, with different meanings; can refer to education and training, self-control and determination, knowledge in a particular field of study or an orderly way of life. As a deity, introduced by Emperor Hadrian fundamentally to enhance the effectiveness of his army, he had to embody these qualities to his worshipers, especially the Imperial Roman soldiers, especially those who lived along the borders of the Roman Empire. They have found altars dedicated to her in Great Britain and North Africa. The fortress of Cilurnum on Hadrian's Wall was dedicated to the goddess Discipline, as evidenced by a dedicatory inscription on a stone altar found in 1978. His followers were to be guided by their principal virtues, the frugalitas, severitas and fidelis-frugality , severity, and fidelity. Before the worship of the goddess Discipline, a soldier had to become frugal in every way: with money, energy and his actions. By the virtue of the severitas he had to show a centered, determined, not easily dissuaded behavior. He must be faithful to his unity, army, officers and the Roman people.
