==References == | <p> an ancient Roman festival celebrated in honor of [[Minerva]] on March 19. Some writers allege that its observance was limited to one day; others, however, say that it lasted for five days. This last is the opinion of Ovid, who considers it to have been a festival held in commemoration of the birthday of Minerva; and hence it was customary for women on that day to consult diviners and fortunetellers. </p> | ||
