this site needs to show the Roman deity Festivals for the specific god. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.81.82.114 (talkcontribs) 22:32, 16 November 2005 (UTC).[reply]

The battle of Lake Trasimene was on June 24, not June 23. And (please note I know nothing on the subject) why would they not remember the battle of Cannae? 145.53.132.133 21:03, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm very unfamiliar with Republican history. Wikipedia's Battle of Lake Trasimene page gives the date as June 24. The Oxford Classical Dictionary gives June 21. Ovid (Fasti 6.768) says the "date of the disaster" was "the tenth day from the end of the month" ("quintus ab extremo mense bis ille dies"), which the Loeb and Penguin both interpret as June 22, apparently counting ten days inclusively from July 1. We need someone better informed than I am to sort this out. EALacey 22:10, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't Fornacalia overlap w/ Lupercalia and Quirinalia? 76.178.145.26 (talk) 19:16, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hilaria?

[edit]

Can anyone tell me why this page has no mention of the Hilaria, which is described elsewhere on Wikipedia as a major Roman religious festival?
