In Roman mythology, Carmenta was the goddess of childbirth and prophecy, associated with technological innovation as well as the protection of mothers and children, and a patron of midwives.

Carmenta was said to have invented the Latin alphabet.


Carmenta was one of the Camenae. The leader of her cult was called the flamen carmentalis.


It was forbidden to wear leather or other forms of dead skin in her temple, which was next to the Porta Carmentalis in Rome.
