<h2 class="mb-2">History</h2>
<p>
Janus is the double-faced god of archways, entrenches, passages, time, the beginning & the end. The Romans
named January in his honor & was one of the 12 principal deities of <em>Religio Romana</em> (Roman Religion).
Janus was unique to Latium (centeral western Italy), predating the Romans & had no Greek counterpart.
</p>
<p>
Janus had his ceremonies carried out by the <em>Rex Sacrorum</em> (King of the Sacred) instead of
dedicated <em>flamens</em> (priests) like the other deities. The shrine <strong>Janus Geminus</strong> was
dedicated to him which had giant double doors which would be closed in times of peace and left open during times
of war. The Roman historian <strong>Titus Livius</strong> would recount the doors being closed only twice
between the time of <strong>Numa Pompilius</strong> (7th century BC) and <strong>Augustus</strong> (1st century BC).

For the first time, Legio XXX will be hosting an Agonium near Tillsonburg Ontario (Thank you Tom Ross).
It's a private single day event where we try not to freeze. If winter camping isn't your thing, consider
coming to <a routerLink="/events/aestiva">Castra Aestiva</a> in May or <a routerLink="/events/hiberna">Castra Hiberna</a> in September.
