Waxing For Men In Rhode Island

Year, year and ring

It may be shocking to see the words together year, year and ring because they have very different meanings, but these three words are etymologically related as some authors who all come from anus circle. Let's see them in pairs:

(Image: Eon and Tellus surrounded by four children representing the seasons personified Roman mosaic of a villa Sentinum, early third century , Munich Glyptotek (Inv. W504). Wikipedia)

anus "ring" and Annus "lamb"

classic Las Fuentes tells us that the word anus, "ring" is derived Annus, "year "with expressive geminación by the idea of \u200b\u200ba circle, the period of solar revolution.

  • Varro of Latin VI, 8.

Tempus ad mist the mist of a sun revenue, vocatur Annus , quod ut Parvi circuli anuli , sic magni dicebantur circit ani , unde annus.

is called annus (year), because as the small circles are called anuli (rings) and a large circles were called animals, where viene el nombre de annus.

  • San Isidoro, Etimologías V, 36, 1

Annus autem dictus quia mensibus in se recurrentibus volvitur. Unde et anulus ,quasi annus, id est circulus, quod in se redeat.

Se llama año porque regresa al punto inicial después del decurso de los meses. De ahí that the name of the ring as if to say years in that circle because it returns to its beginning.

This is also the opinion of most modern authors as Angel Pariente in phonetics and morphology studies America (Universidad de Salamanca, 1949). also Lewis and Short dictionary emphasizes this relationship.

Nonetheless, other authors such as Ernout-Meillet for whom the word annus (year) has no relation to anus (ring, ring). Explain the spelling of the latter double n , annus and annulus under the influence of word annus , and is due to a false etymological relationship .

Anus "circle" " year " anulus and "ring"

Moreover the word anus, "ring" acquired the meaning of " year" going to be a euphemism for cULus , Which was considered more rude. So Cicero in his letter Ad Family XXII this application patent us

"Anum" Appello alieno nomine: cur? if turpe est, ne quidem alienate, if non est, suo Photius.

You call year with borrowed name. Why? If it is obscene, so too is named others, if not, call it's own.

Therefore to say ring was used diminutive of anus, anulus anellus even "little ring" as we read in San Isidoro and Horace.

San Isidore, Etymologies XIX, 32 : ring name is a diminutive form of anus.

Horace Satirae, 2, 7, 9 : cum anellis tribes. with three rings.


Who was the first ring?

He says San Isidoro ( Eti. XIX, 32 ) than men began to wear rings imitating the Titan Prometheus.




Hand sculpture Lucentum forum. MARQ).

is said that Prometheus was the first strapped on his finger with an iron ring that was enshrined in a pebble. Following his example the men began to wear rings.

According to the myth Prometheus was chained in the Caucasus by Zeus who promised to unleash never yet managed to free him Hercules. As this increased the exploits of his son, Zeus allowed but for their oath had not been in vain ordered Prometheus to carry a ring made of steel chains and thus a tie still steel titan with his joining the rock.

Among the Greeks the first written testimony which mentioned a ring is the episode narrated by Herodotus on the ring of Polycrates in Stories III, 41. Polycrates of Samos was a man so fortunate and blessed by the gods, who, having thrown overboard a ring of great value he possessed, he was returned later by a fisherman who had caught the fish that had swallowed. Amasis of Egypt thought that such a man would one day be punished by the gods, jealous of success and happiness of a man. This was reason enough for him to break the covenant of hospitality, he did not want that any future bad luck of his ally turned against him.

seems that the custom of wearing rings the Romans came from Sabine or Etruscan according to the testimony of Pliny (Naturalis Historia XXXIII) that the statues of kings Numa and Servius Tullio wore rings on the fourth finger of the left hand . And this seems to be the most common location, San Isidoro gives us reason

Men originally wore the rings on the fourth finger from the thumb, because he runs a vein that goes to the heart and the old thought it was necessary to report them and decorate it in a special way

In sponsalia Romans, in which it held the promise of future nup stances, the sponsus or promised gifts to the bride, as a guarantee of commitment, present value including highlights the anulus pronubus, ring of gold or iron, with a gem studded, which was also placed on the ring finger of his left hand. According to Aulus Gelli, Noctes Atticae X, 10 by the following

know that the ancient Greeks wore the ring on the finger of his left hand next to the pinky. It also said that the Romans used mostly rings as well. Apion says in his books on Egypt, this is the cause of this custom because, striped and open human bodies, as was customary in Egypt, which the Greeks call anatomy, was found leaving the fine nerve finger we have said and touches your heart man. Moreover, it seems a fumble that this finger was the best to be decorated with such honor, for its content and for being connected to the main part of the heart.

Hands Bronze ring and bracelet, seventh century BC from flickr

However, this explanation of Aulus Gelli is tinged with a sentimentality that has no place in most Roman betrothal in which the woman is a taxable person who is not involved in choosing your future husband.

Rather, it is visible to all the commitments established by proof tangible, the ring was placed on the left since Etruscan times it bothered less to the daily chores, as we read in Macrobius Saturnalia 7, 13, 7 , who through Ateia Capito says that fashion to carry precious gems made

be left free from the use of right hand rings, which are relegated from the left, which is idle, so that with the frequent movement and work of the right hand did not break the stones.

delivery legally ring was a gift without legal commitment, but for Tertullian does have the guarantee of a future marriage, because in his of idolatry when talking about the sponsalia to indicate the solemnity used as an equivalent commitment sponsalia and anulus.

Similarly Juvenal Sat 6, 25 refers to the ring and :

And maybe you put the finger and the pledge of commitment

also Pliny Nat Hit XXXIII, use the formula VI sponsio nullify exsiliente to refer to the commitments made wedding ring delivery guarantee.

anulus This is our current pronubus engagement ring gives the guy's girlfriend and this leads in the left hand ring as a clear heritage of our classical culture.

rings for the Romans had a great symbolic, emphasizing birth natalitius anulus, engagement wedding pronubus anulus, social status, anulus aureus, the ring of soldiers, but also for practical purposes as a key ring, as a box, a seal, as an amulet .... from which we will see its own characteristics and general curiosities, and their survival today.

Salutem plurimam!

Goddesses of the seasons and time in ancient Greece. daughters of Zeus and Themis and sisters of the Fates and Nymphs who inhabited the river Eridanus in principle were personifications of phenomena natural, later, however, appear to be protective growth and prosperity worshiped in Athens with the names of Thall ( Θαλλώ ) Auxo ( Αὐξώ ) and Karp ( Καρπώ ), ie, as personifications of nature in spring, summer and autumn, respectively; in Hesiod, Theogony , 901 et seq., however, appear three in number as representatives of the Justice ( Δίκη ) of Peace ( Εἰρήνη ) and Legality ( Εὐνομία ) because monitor the actions of men and show the harmony and order in general . In this as in many other cases of Greek mythology, there is a gradual transition ranging from the purely physical to the ethical concepts and the influence of Hours in nature originally had subsequently moved to the human life in particular.

In other myths the Pan see accompanying or in the entourage of Dionysus, god of rebirth of nature; according to the Orphic the hours, along with Thanks and Fates led to Persephone in his ascent from Hades in spring and, according to Pausanias were present at the birth of Athena .


Homer, without specifying their number or origin presents them as the guardians of the Heaven's Gate that close and open, clouds piling or scattering them to the Olympus . They were therefore supervisory climate, but rather the only ministers who had power over heaven, Zeus. Also dealt with horses Hera.

Ἥρη δὲ μάστιγι θοῶς ἐπεμαίετ ἄρ ἵππους: αὐτόμαται δὲ πύλαι μύκον οὐρανοῦ ἃς ἔχον Ὧραι, τῇς ἐπιτέτραπται μέγας οὐρανὸς Οὔλυμπός τε ἠμὲν ἀνακλῖναι πυκινὸν νέφος ἠδ᾽ ἐπιθεῖναι. τῇ ῥα δι᾽ αὐτάων κεντρηνεκέας ἔχον ἵππους: εὗρον But the gods Kroniona Ateron bility of the notified other akrotatῃ koryfῇ polydeirados Oulympoio.

As they were designed to promote the prosperity of all that grows, also appear as protectors of young people and infants between the gods and the oath the Athenian youths uttered in the temple of Aglauros in Ephebe mentions Thall and Auxo , among other gods . ( Pollux, VIII, 106 ):

not disgrace the sacred weapons that I have, do not abandon my comrade in struggle, will fight to defend the sanctuaries of the state, and convey to posterity a country not dwarfed, but larger, more powerful, to the extent of my strength and with the help of all. Obey magistrates, to the established laws and to institute appropriate fashion, if someone tried to lift them will prevent it with all my strength and with the help of all.

Finally, tempered their initial meaning, adopt a symbolic and allegorical and end up as subdivisions time. In fact, Alexandrian writers raised their number to twelve , ie as many as the times of the day and night, and considered daughters and Chronos Gea. Hyginus (Fables 183) produces a first list of nine hours, which can see a lot of confusion since mixes original names with epithets : Auxo (Αὐξώ), nymph of plants; Eunomia (Εὐνομία) the good order; Férousa (Φέρουσα), goddess of the substance and farms; Karp (Καρπώ), time fall; Dike (Δίκη), goddess of justice; Euporía (Εὐπορία), goddess of abundance; Eirene (Εἰρήνη), goddess of peace; Orthosia (Ὀρθωσία), goddess of prosperity; Thall (Θαλλώ), time of spring.

In a second list of eleven hours , to which was added after Arktos appear as minor gods guardians of time and agenda, ranging from the time just before sunrise after dark : Auges (Αὔγης), the first light; Anatol (Ἀνατολή), Dawn; Mousiké (Μουσική), the morning hour of music and study; Gymnasia (Γυμνασία), the morning hour of physical exercise; Nýmfe (Νύμφη), the time for ablutions; Mesembria (Μεσημβρία), noon; Sponda (Σπονδή), the time of libations; Telet (Τελετή), the first hour of work in the afternoon; Akte (Ἀκτή), the second hour work week; Hesperis (Ἑσπερίς), Sunset; DYSIS (Δύσις), sunset and Arktos (Ἄρκτος), the last light.

The Romans suggested four hours and daughters considered Helios and Selene .

It was red, was slowly increasing in size with a circular shape as it grew, the central area cleared the exterior color and turns bright red. The increased size and I already saw the need to consult with your doctor. As a few days before you review in rheumatology took no action. The rheumatologist I turned to dermatology to value.
analytics was normal, the diagnosis was erythema anulal centrifuge. He prescribed an ointment called Protopic 0.1% tacrolimus (treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in adults who do not respond adequately or who are intolerant of conventional therapies such as topical corticosteroids. Protopic tacrolimus as the active ingredient contains a calcineurin inhibitor. Calcineurin is an enzyme and a protein phosphatase), was giving me with ointment for several days. The spots disappeared completely, but over the weeks turned to played on the same site, again to give me with the ointment, and back again disappeared. After several outbreaks, the spots appeared on his right arm in the same area on the left. Each time take longer to disappear. And took around two years, I'm a little worried. Outbreaks of erythema annulare centrifugum course occur when the heat starts in early spring and runs throughout the summer weather.
So far the ointment was the disappearance of the erythema, but appeared later. But in this latest outbreak, although I have been applying the ointment one month does not go away, quite the contrary, grows in size each zone red and appear out new spots.
I have to reapply to go through the consultation of dermatology.

valued Once all the symptoms (like lupus), the rheumatologist prescribed me some pills containing the active era hydroxychloroquine. For years I took the drug but not all my pain was relieved. As happened before, before taking hydroxychloroquine, it is mandatory to pass an eye examination with fundus study, since the drug in question may undesirable effects on vision, it is advisable to review the start of treatment and continue during such periodic inspections and prescription taken. I recently
taking hydroxychloroquine, not relieved me of anything besides lupus and again produced some discomfort and nausea, as in previous years. After consulting the rheumatologist withdrew the medication.
As still had stains on the face and burning sensation, the solution was sought to extend the time of injecting the biological. Instead of pricking every 15 days, would be once every 3 weeks, and await the outcome.
After several months of the implementation of the new guideline, the pain increased moderately and some little morning stiffness began to be noticed.
was evident that could not reduce the biological dose Enbrel. I was hoping that by reducing the injection would improve the lupus, unfortunately not, so I went back again to inject my usual dose of an injection of 25 mg every 15 days.
By lengthening the time period of injection and the subsequent increase in pain, it has been shown that even I have spondylitis of the active phase. The rheumatologist explained that with age often comes spondylitis in remission period and comes to rest, that yes, always suffer the consequences that have left the body through joint damage, bone and other reasons.
sitomatología I still have lupus, I have to avoid the sun and any heat source to have photosensitivity (exaggerated response of the skin to sunlight or ultraviolet light). Every time I go out, I must protect arms and face with sunscreen with the highest protection, hat and sunglasses. I hope
lupus remains in this state and no increase in intensity and scope.

Sore Throat Sore Gums

More numbers, other letters

That there is no way to figure how to order, to the concert and reasonable cyclicity (one a week, do less. Or two. Or a month, Recon). Anyway, that since today I have been cooperating necessary in a pic-nic (I swear it's true: the pro urbanite who is a has been called to exercise a broom car topped on a cycle tour-to Pradit -side-of-Ebro, never seen) had to tell. But a bit of chronology, which is not the only one who deserves to be reported, even for my own low control.

In previous post I mentioned a concert Modes to be held in Room Zeta the 02/11/2011, the date very apparent because of their partial palindromic. We played with a group of Barcelona, \u200b\u200b The Power, whom I recommend to all Vdes. strongly. A great bass player, a stunning guitar, all contention despite his immense virtuosity (in addition to notabilísimo composer), a powerful battery and a singer of those skinny-with-great-personality. I loved it. I loved the concert, in general, ours and yours, except for a few minor details : the public were eight people and our fee rose a. .. 13.75 EUR. No, no transcription error.




The next show Modes was held last Wednesday, May 4, 2011, in Rock and Blues , in the context of group III Contest organized by the hatchery. It that of the fifty or so bands that played last year in the Chamber, it has selected eight, and between them we are. All very well in terms of self-esteem. What to play on Wednesday has some drawbacks in terms of volume of the crowd, but not bad. The sad thing is that it will probably be the last concert with us to make our drummer, Jose, who has left, moving to a band called Decall . In return, I present to the public My new acquisition:



With Vdes. my new Gibson ES339 antique network. Do not say that it is not pretty. Sounds scary, is beautiful under the lights flashing insulting and feedbackea as any guitar should do well. Way with and I enjoyed it on stage, what the hell. As the organization became a professional photographer to make pictograms de qualité , I'm pretty sure I can hang a portrait of those, which evidences the reality of my assertion.

Well, on Wednesday night was a sort of oasis in the middle of a workweek overconsumption that takes you to a morning, afternoon and night (although he gives one time to escape a couple of hours to make the aforementioned concert, am a marvel of organization.) Immediately before and at the time of the bridge too that they have invented in order to clinch the excellent work in Spain on the verge of 25% unemployment (a salute to Mr. Chapuzapatero), enjoyed a brief trip to Bordeaux, where I could get púho of delicious wines.



I left here on Friday at noon, I arrived at 22.00 directly to dinner and the next day at 10.30, was in the first tasting. And so on Monday: after round off the gastronomic journey through the glorious lunch of Cintruénigo Maher (Señaladísimo restaurant Vdes should not ignore. If they venture on a tour of that part of Navarra) I came home (carrying, that if a kilo more than I have to release).



this background so stressful, include Vdes. MBO suggested that when done in a soothing Saturday morning picnic in la campagne could I would not oppose. Of course, one has its limits, and when I knew it was a bic -nic, all indicated that very well, but I would support vehicle. vehicle car care, I mean. As it turns out he had invited another fifteen people and had to bring blankets, food, drinks and all sorts of tools needed to organize the event, the idea was not bad. And I've gone there, carrying up to implement the large stock (God enlightened me: If not, my poor Porsche barchetta had become, and never better). In short, we are synthetic: PICNIC Saturday, one arrives, extends tablecloths, eat things (rich) undertaken in partnership, laughs, drink some wine, a little beer, a coke, then puts down the sky, reflected throughout the entire wafer (including trash), moves such as a bar and drink a carajillo. Curious, sips. Biking is a bit more uncomfortable truth ... My Book 2 of GBS were explaining how the bike picnics stated as the omelette and the guitar (in fact, I've had a sound, all bucolic and minstrel me), but it's terrifying tormentone. Nothing that has not solved then in house, right behind rosette spray, a gin and tonic of Fever Tree and London Gin.





You see, life is more or less the same, leaving aside the arithmetic progression of the effects of adolescence (eternal) of the young UPMM, which now has nineteen years and is much more unpalatable when I was fifteen. Permanence J. teen is so milk (if not worse) you can almost me.



In between my readings, lean pleasure of a life a little hit, I would not recommend much. I guess the last sensational Vargas Llosa's dream Celtic , but that is as old as obvious (do not stop reading it). Anything less and navigate The Pirate round, a little work O'Brian type whose author, James L. NELSON was heavily weighted by it. The burden of topgallant mast , mooring winch and the text is light: it is not necessary, so just, being all the while pulling nautical dictionary to read.



panfletillos

A couple of political philosophy, Insurrection next (due to a supposed invisible Committee) and Indignaos ( Stéphane HESSEL, prefaced-rant of the bore of SAMPEDRO ) I have used to find that the progressive thinking (or far left, why not say: of the two texts, one ien the excellence of communism, with two balls) of moth-eaten remains the same despite the stink naphthalene apparent. No regret and having read them. Nothing new under the sun.



identic here that neither would comment on the political situation in the country, but I am so sick of shoes and his useless cronies, of the possibility of repeating the experience tripartitaria in Aragon and Zaragotham, although this sozis time the communists were cachiruleros municipality, rather than with the Communists barretineros (in addition to the Communists without a pledge of specific regional head), of the shame of the Camps and especially the airport záforas that Castellon and whose very existence requires prison screams behind those sunglasses ... I'm so sick, in short, I prefer pass to avoid spreading it to Vdes. my disgust.



Well, a new play by an old acquaintance that definitely has not been called by the way of narrative comme il faut beyond Petra Delicado . I mean Alicia Giménez Bartlett , which is shipped with a Where no one will find perfectly dispensable, which also refers to Beceite - Teruel province as Beseit . Writing course in English. These things, as you know I get bad, but certainly not the work may crack as severely by such a fool. The problem is that the adventure is quite unlikely, the most false Judas and more predictable than El Gran Wyoming, dialogues, numerous, completely out of context and chronological sense (identical the speech of a journalist from Barcelona and a peasant Teruel, for example), and too much moralizing underlying very historical memory, though less charged to the progression. Come on, I can not take the trouble to get it and read it.



And with that, I retire to rest: I have an entry verbose shoes fit and I deserve it. I think.

The problem is that as yet I have spondylitis in active phase, I have to appreciate that the like lupus can be tolerated to avoid withdrawal the biological (Enbrel), and thus have a relapse and the subsequent outbreak or progression of ankylosing spondylitis.
This syndrome begins during the treatment of certain drugs and biologicals, rarely leads anti ds DNA (although in my case seems to have tested positive), anti DNA levels are variable and increase often with the disease activity especially when there is renal involvement.
The clinical significance of ANA has been known for over 40 years. But in recent years have made progress in identifying their specific immune; and some of them have proved useful for diagnosis and monitoring of patients.
The list of drugs that can cause this syndrome is extensive.

When I went to shave like every morning, I noticed on both sides of the face on the part of the cheekbones, I had red spots, and it was warm in those areas. It would be some sort of rash. Days passed and that rather than removed or reduced, it was the opposite, increasing all the time, both in extent and the sensation of heat, if that was not itching or stinging, it was hot, as if he had any heat source near the face. The doctor prescribed me an ointment called Peitel cream (a topical corticosteroid Prednicarbate is characterized by its pronounced anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, anti-exudative and antipruritic).
I was giving her a few days, the spots appear and disappear regularly. In one of the regular revison Cordoba, Department of Rheumatology, exposed him to the rheumatologist. The doctor asked me a blood test a little more specific. Had to be urinating on a boat from light for 24 hours. In the blood than a normal, included the review of ANA and anti DNA.

-. The ANA are antibodies present in people whose immune systems may be causing inflammation against their own body tissues. The antibodies that attack its own tissues are called autoantibodies. When the immune system acts against his own body, develops autoimmunity.
antinuclear antibodies (ANA). Are autoantibodies directed against the nucleus of cells, and are positive in almost all patients with SLE.
ANA reveal the possibility that a person has an autoimmune disease.
is important to remember that a positive result on the ANA test by itself is not a confirmation of the presence of lupus. ANA
analysis is not a test for lupus. There is no specific test for lupus. The ANA test is only a screening test to help guide physicians in various directions. -.

anti-DNA antibodies are native autoantibodies directed against the cell's genetic material and are characteristic of lupus (not present in any other illness.) Are determined with some regularity since their blood levels appear to relate to SLE activity (increase when active), so that helps doctors assess the degree of disease activity. -.

anti-Sm antibodies are named for the first patient ("Smith") in their blood were detected. Found almost exclusively in SLE and often help confirm the diagnosis.

returned to the dermatology consultation the day indicated. To my surprise the culture of the nail had come out negative, there were fungi. So what was that?. It seemed that they were mushrooms, for nothing. The blood test was normal. Given this, the dermatologist told me it could be small traumas in the nails, a disease belonging to the onychodystrophy.
Is there a rule then all relationships biological side effect?, It appeared that it was.
He prescribed some sticky pads to stick onto affected nails.
Returning to his office was subject to no improvement in symptoms. If all went well, and the drug took effect, it was obvious that we should not meet again (which then happened for a few spots appeared on the skin).
The brand name was Fine vin patches Plus (Fine had also just vin). Fine vin Plus dressings are a superfine film with an adhesive layer that seals the nail normalizing their water balance (water balance in the intracellular and extracellular compartments of the body), adhere to the nail and can be a shower and wash without problems of detachment.
nails are protected. The patches contain sertaconazole (Antifungal broad spectrum dermatophytes, opportunistic filamentous fungi, yeasts and Gram +), component to neutralize fungi and bacteria preventing infection and spread.
patches come in three sizes, S, M, and XL, I bought at the pharmacy (not entered the health insurance) S and XL, to cut and adapt to each type of nail. I change (because of my back ankylosis they had to make ATS) once a week.
The onychodystrophy affects a significant proportion of the population, and the incidence and prevalence of the cunning of nail growth increases with age. immunocompromised patients, the elderly, diabetics ... alterations more frequently than the rest of the population.
The onychodystrophy has a very slow evolution is also different in the fingernails and toenails due to the different pace of growth.
The disease with which it relates are, onychomycosis, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis ...
also occur frequently traumatic dystrophies.
Between 3 and 8% of the European population suffers onychodystrophy.
month after the application of the patches already noticing improvement was remarkable, nails were no longer so black. Parts of the affected nails fell off giving way to the growth of healthy nails.
nails gradually returned to normal appearance. The problem was solved.

At first I did not give much importance, but as time passed he saw that aside from going dark more affected nails, the rest began to follow the same process. There was no pain, or no discomfort. The nails are put hard and thick. Noting that it was increasing all described, I consulted the doctor. The doctor at the first assessment he thought he was suffering from fungus, he prescribed me a liquid to the nails with a brush. I spent some days with this treatment but did not improve anything. I made a flyer and I made an appointment at the dermatology consultation.
When I called the Valley Regional Hospital Pedroches, took the medical report, the analysis that I had done in connection with the latest revision in the Rheumatology Service, Hospital Reina Sofía de Córdoba.
Dermatologist read the medical report and asked me some things about my illness. I was looking at the toes and nails, and now to the review said they were not what I had fungus on the nails. To complete security, asked the nurse to send her a kit to scrape some nails and make a laboratory culture. Before
awaiting the results, I returned to give a new appointment, I also requested a new analytical.

How Many Round Cake Pans

Finalize 2011 2011

Saguntini Ludi clausi sunt . This is the phrase that just yesterday, the last day of the Ludi Saguntini 2011, rang in the ears of all those present at the theater in Sagunto. With this last edition was closed and gave way to the representation of Aulularia of Plautus conducted by the Molotov Theatre Group of Millau. As every year, since the launch in 2009, he was preceded a representation of recreation of a bubble this time reminisced and celebrated the Cerealia in honor of Ceres , y las Fordicidia , en honor a la diosa Tellus . Una comitiva encabezada por músicos partió de la Saguntina Domus Baebia camino del teatro. La formaban dos Lictores , dos Ediles Curules , las Vestales , el Flamen Cerealis , sus ayudantes y los oferentes, todos vestidos de blanco, como exige el ritual. Los Lictores, en latín, explicaron al público la celebración que estaban a punto de presenciar y le pidieron guardar silencio. Siguieron nuestros particulares Ediles Curules con un discurso, en griego y en latín, que dio paso al sacrificio de una cerda a Ceres llevado a cabo por nuestro Flamen Cerealis. During the speech, prepared the Vestal Mola Salsa and collected the ashes of pregnant cows slaughtered in the Fordicidia. Finally he offered to Ceres offerings of honey, flowers, milk and cereals.

The week has been, as in all editions, frantic, but this is precisely what makes it special, what stimulates us and encourages us to follow. The warm welcome they always have the activities offered by the students and teachers from different schools who visit us is for us the crucial stimulus that justifies and gives meaning to what we do. So, thank you for your presence, your interest, your participation, your patience ...










Through our workshops, and Capto Tempore Aetate Hominis: Infantia have been about 800 students. To each and every one thank you for the strong performance and we apologize for any delays, sometimes inevitable, and failures that, as humans, make. Hope have been able to teach something new and, if so, who can take advantage of the workshops offered. Yes we have learned from them, always take lessons and everything and everyone always learns something.

Special mention our students (IES Consuelo Aranda IES Alberic and Cárcer of CARC), who took care of our representation at the Forum Saguntinum for their selfless help always welcome. Thanks, guys!








Finally, our group also participated, as every year in the Journal Saguntino with an article about Rites of Passage in Greece , which sought to expand on what already works in the shop Aetate Hominis: Infantia , centered primarily in Rome. From this link can download the magazine, which I recommend reading because all items are of great interest.

Whoever wants to follow a detailed chronicle of the day to day this week you can read it here and, here you can see all the pictures of those days.

Ludi They finished the 2011, but we started to prepare the following. We'll meet again, as in the LUDI Saguntini 2012!
