Roman Calendar - June 5, Festival of Semo SancusDius Fidius Semo Sancus was a minor and somewhat obscure Roman god. He was a god of oaths and goot faith and protected also the sanctity of marriage and international treaties. He had also something to do with lightning and harvests. Semo Sancus had a temple on Quirinal that was dedicated on June 5 466 BCE by Consul Spurious Postumius. As an anecdote one can mention that temple had no roof since oaths were supposed to be taken under open sky.https://theodora.com/encyclopedia/s/semo_sancus.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sancus -- source link
