Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lupercalia This new method of approach arouses a hope that it may lead to a solution of some of the puzzling practices of Roman ritual. Perhaps the most interesting and the most perplexing of all the Roman festivals is the Lupercalia, with its incoherent and fantastic ceremonial, its prehistoric origin, and the varied accounts of it. Consequently, though the Lupercalia has been a subject of specula tion since Varro's day, it is worth while, now that we have a new point of departure, to try once more to solve the riddle.
