Explanation of various calendars
After the defeat of the Roman army by the Gauls in CCCLXIV
A.V.C. (390 BC), the survivors hid in the woods (lucus) and this day is
called the Lucaria in commemoration of the event. After the sack of Rome
the remnants of the Roman army pulled themselves together, and in a bold
surprise attack, wiped out the Gauls as they were heading out of Latium,
exacting due vengeance.
The Great Fire raged across Rome this day in DCCCXVII A.V.C. (64 AD). Nero blamed the Christians, although he probably had the fire set himself. A dozen or so Christians were burned alive to satiate the populace.
This day was the Egyptian New Year's Day, when the dog star Sirius would rise. The Egyptians clebrated the wedding of Isis and Osiris this day.
In Greece, this day was celebrated as the wedding day of Adonis and Aphrodite (Venus).
