Abstract: In the article the author makes an attempt to study the etymology of the word religio and the possible presenting a new definition of religion on these grounds. The author supposes that Cicero's definition of religion may be taken as an "umbrella definition" for defining non-Christian religions.
Key words: religion, religio, interpretation, definition, attention.
