Neptunus (Neptune) is the Roman God of the sea and earthquakes and his name is derived from the Etruscan Nepthuns. Neptunalia, is his festival, celebrated in July. The God is associated with fresh water, as opposed to Oceanus, god of the world-ocean. Like Poseidon, Neptune is also worshipped by the Romans as a god of horses, under the name Neptune Equester, patron of horse-racing. The planet Neptune was named after the god because its deep blue gas clouds gave early astronomers the impression of great oceans.
"Here was the Martian beast, the nurse of Roman dominion, Suckling with life-giving dew, that issued from udders distended, Children divinely begotten, who sprang from the loins of the War God; Stricken by lightning she toppled to earth, bearing with her the children; Torn from her station, she left the prints of her feet in descending." Cicero De Divination e 1.26 *The Following Roman Capitoline Wolf statues and Roman Eagle 'Aquila' are NOT included in the Free Shipping offer due to import restrictions. The Soldiers are offered with free shipping!
