Fornacalia
The Fornacalia is an Ancient Roman festival in honour of the goddess Fornax in order that the grain might be properly baked. The festival is said to have been instituted by Numa Pompilius. The time for its celebration was proclaimed every year by the curio maximus, who announced in tablets, which were placed in the forum, the different part which each curia had to take in the celebration of the festival. Those persons who did not know to what curia they belonged performed the sacred rites on the Quirinalia, which fell on the last day of the Fornacalia. The Fornacalia continued to be celebrated in the time of Lactantius.
