The aim of this article is to analyze the role of the founders' cults in Greek colonies with the case of Battos, the founder of Kyrene. The colony was founded by Battos in 630 B.C. after the former territory Thera was damaged by overpopulation and famine. The colony founder was selected by the mother polis. The Delphic oracles indicated the need to colonize, the prospective site and the founder, which granted him religious authority. The founder may be described as the link between the colony and its mother-city. When he landed the colony, the founder divided the land and outlined the city. In addition, the founder proceed to institute cults and festivals, to raise altars, to define precincts, to build temples, and to conduct the proper rites.
With the death of the founder, the foundation process came to an end. The founder were buried in the agora, the center of the polis. The cult of the founder took place annually around the tomb of the founder. Tomb in the agora came to be the focus and site of hero cults. It was the first cult and it symbolized the colony’s new self-identity. The cult of the founder was peculiar to the colony. It played a great part in forming the strong awareness of individuality and autonomy for which the Greek polis is noted. The cult for founder inspired the need for founder cults in the mother cities. The cults for founders of cities served as a basis for the ruler-cults in Hellenistic and Roman periods.
