Roman Helios was a solar deity adopted from the Greek pantheon, where he was known as the personification of the sun. In Roman religion, Helios was often associated with Sol, the Roman god of the sun, but he retained distinct characteristics and was sometimes worshipped as a separate entity. Helios was depicted as driving a chariot across the sky, a classic representation inherited from Greek mythology, symbolizing his role as the sun's charioteer who illuminated the world each day.

The worship of Helios in Rome, though less prominent than that of Sol Invictus, was still significant, particularly in the context of Roman syncretism. The Romans integrated Greek deities into their own religious framework, often blending their attributes and stories with those of Roman gods. In Roman art and literature, Helios was portrayed with a radiant crown, emphasizing his divine connection to the sun. His iconography often included the sun chariot and sometimes the horses that pulled it, reflecting the continuity of Greek religious imagery.

Despite Helios' integration into Roman religious practices, the prominence of Sol Invictus, especially after the reforms of Emperor Aurelian, overshadowed him. Sol Invictus, with his emphasis on the "Unconquered Sun," became the central solar deity of the later Roman Empire, overshadowing Helios in official state religion. However, Helios' legacy continued through his representation in art and literature, illustrating the enduring influence of Greek religious traditions on Roman culture. The blend of these solar deities highlights the complex nature of Roman religious practices and the ways in which they absorbed and adapted elements from various cultural and religious sources.
