PARENTALIA — IDVS FEBRVARII MMDCCLVI A.V.C
Explanation
of various calendars
The Parentalia were a celebratory
period in which ancestors were honored. It lasted from 13 February through
21 February. The temples would all be closed during this period. Offerings
of small amounts of wine, bread, a sprinling of salt, or flowers were made
at the tombs.
On this day the Fabii clan, fighting alone
against the Veii for Rome, were ambushed and destroyed but for one boy.
