Extrait du document

(Free) Roman An ancient god of fertility and procreation, particularly of seeds and plants. Liber was the husband or perhaps brother of Libera, an ancient fertility goddess, and closely connected with her to Ceres, the Roman goddess of plants and grains. Romans prayed to Liber and Libera to bring them many children and good crops. They celebrated a festival in Liber's honor, the Liberalia, on March 17. By the first century b.c., Liber was closely identified with the Greek god Dionysus at which point he became a protector of grapevines. Then vintners prayed to him for good wine.
