Religio Romana
	On roman religion I'm most influenced by the famous wall painting found at Dura Europos of the tribune Julius Terentius making an offering in front of his troops.  To his left stands the Vexillarius holding the standard next to the statuae deorum.  Behind the tribune stand the troops of the Cohors Vicesima Palmyrenorum, in an orderly double file.  Though by the mid 3rd century date of the fresco the dress of the miles romanus, and these milites were likely auxillaries,  had greatly changed from those of the 1st century, their traditions and culture likely had not. This is admittedly a work in progress.  I've seen roman religious rites recreated at events such as Roman Days Northeast, but beyond the image taken from Dura Europos, I need to give this subject more thought.  Much more research is required.  As roman reenactors we certainly cannot ignore the topic of religion.  More information on Roman religious practices may be found on the Nova Roma site.
		Date gratias deis omnibus quae habetis! After I wrote this sentence I realized that other perfectly valid sentences may be made simply by changing the relative pronoun.  Instead of omnibus being the antecedent, make omnibus an adjective to deis and let deis be the antecedent.  Then another interesting sentence is made by: Date gratias deis omnibus quos habetis! Lingua latina est admirabile!
