Who was the Roman god of fire and volcanoes?

Answer 1

Vulcan was the god of fire and Vesta was the goddess of fire. Vulcan was the Roman equivalent of Hephaestus, the lame smith of the gods. Correction: Vesta was the goddess of the hearth. Not quite the same.

Answer 2

Vesta is the Roman Goddess of Fire and the Hearth she had, in Rome, a circular temple which was considered the central fire or hearth of that city. The name 'Vesta' means, (as does her Greek counterpart's) the 'hearth.'

She was one of the most ancient of the Roman Gods and Goddesses, she reminds us of a time when the central fire in the house had a religious as well as merely house-warming function. She lends, of course, her name to the famous Vestal virgins who served at her Altar in Rome and who kept her fire burning continually in an act of worship. Vesta represented, as did Hestia before her, the sacred central fire which supplies the heat for a home and on which food was cooked, meals were prepared.
