Laverna
In Roman mythology, Laverna was a goddess of gain or profit and the underworld, who became associated with the protection of lower classes, refugees, and plans developed by thieves. She was propitiated by libations poured with the left hand. The poet Horace and the playwright Plautus called her a goddess of thieves. In Rome, her sanctuary was near the Porta Lavernalis, the gate on the northern summit of the Aventine Hill.
