Not to be confused, as in Livy, _Epit._ 14, with a statue of Summanus
himself on the same temple (in fastigio Iovis: Cicero, _Div._ 1. 10).

Footnote 659:
Festus, 229, s. v. Proversum fulgor: ‘Quod diurna Iovis, nocturna
Summani fulgura habentur.’ (Cp. Pliny, _N. H._ 2. 52.) An interesting
inscription (_C. I. L._ vi. 206) runs, ‘Summanium fulgus conditum,’ i.
e. ‘a bolt which fell before dawn was buried here.’

wheel-cakes as ‘emblematic of Summanus’ as a god of sun and sky.

Ovid is the only authority for the worship of Fortuna on June 11
(_Fasti_, 6. 569); it is not mentioned in the calendars (Tusc. Ven.
Maff.) which have notes surviving for this day.

l. c. ‘Castissime colitur a matribus.’ One of the ancient inscriptions
from Praeneste (_C. I. L._ xi. 2863) is a dedication ‘nationu cratia’
= _nationis gratia_, which may surely mean ‘in gratitude for
childbirth,’ though Mommsen would refer it to cattle, on the ground of
a gloss of Festus (p. 167).
