- This quote was censored:
In the days leading up to the summer solstice, ancient Romans celebrated Vesta, the goddess of the hearth, home and family... Vesta’s popular appeal remained active even after the advent of Christianity, until it was forcibly stamped out by the devout Christian emperor Theodosius I in 391 C.E. He ordered the cessation of pagan festivals like the solstice celebration and the closing of pagan temples; by the following century, most pagan temples were destroyed or converted to Christian churches. - When I Celebrated the Summer Solstice With Ancient Roman Gods and Goddesses, Amy Bizzarri, Smithsonian Magazine (htm) (5 August 2022).........
