   Why was the Pantheon built?

   • The word 'pantheon' comes from Greek words pan (all) and theos (gods). Thus, it was created to pay tribute to all gods of Rome. A fire, unfortunately, destroyed the Pantheon after only 100 years. Emperor Minitian, who ruled Rome from 81-96 AD, then had it rebuilt. This new temple didn't last long either and lightning struck it down in 110 AD.
