The [[Roman festival]] of '''Larentalia''' was held on 23 December but was ordered to be observed twice a year by [[Augustus]]; by some supposed to be in honour of the [[Lares]], a kind of domestic ''genii'', or divinities, worshipped in houses, and esteemed the guardians and protectors of families, supposed to reside in chimney-corners. Others have attributed this feast in honour of [[Acca Larentia]], the nurse of [[Romulus]] and [[Remus]], and wife of [[Faustulus]].<ref name="Belier1991">{{cite book|author=Wouter W.
