From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vertumnalia erant festum Romanum, Vertumno deo dedicatum, quod die 13 Augusti vel reipublicae liberae tempore 13 Sextilis[1] celebrabatur, Iduum die.
Parum certi de Vertumnalibus notum est. In aede Vertumni, in Aventino sita, fortasse celebrabantur. Varro dicit[2] T. Tatium Vertumnum colendum Romae fecit; Propertius (IV 2, 59) Numam simulacrum Vertumni primam statuisse affirmat. Etymologia nominis, quam Ovidius et Propertius citant (quasi qui vertit amnem), vulgaris sed minime credibilis est.
