This Day in Ancient History
This was the day of the Roman one day festival (during the Saturnalia) called the Larentalia, supposedly a funerary ritual at the purported tomb of Acca Larentia, who was the wife of the shepherd who found Romulus and Remus being suckled by the she-wolf. Man, is that a slim connection to the mytical founders of Rome or what?
