The di inferi or dii inferi (Latin, "the gods below") were a shadowy collective of ancient Roman deities associated with death and the underworld. The epithet inferi is also given to the mysterious Manes, a collective of ancestral spirits. The most likely origin of the word Manes is from manus or manis (more often in Latin as its antonym immanis), meaning "good" or "kindly," which was a euphemistic way to speak of the inferi so as to avert their potential to harm or cause fear.

  • Inferi fou el nom emprat pels romans per referir-se als déus de l'inframón enfront dels déus celestials (Superi). Aquesta divisió també es va donar en la religió de l'antiga Grecia, per distingir-los dels déus de l'Olimp a l'època clàssica. Aquest concepte es designava en grec amb les expressions: οἱ κάτω, οἱ χθὸνιοι, οἱ ὑπὸ γαῖαν, οἱ ἔνερθε, o οἱ ὑπένερθε Δεοὶ i els déus celestials οἱ ἄνω, ὕπατοι i οὐράνιοι. La paraula inferi era emprada també per designar els morts en contraposició als vius de la terra i també com un epítet per definir els manes. (ca)
