Roman Customs that persist in modern (Italian etc) society
#1
I am doing research into ancient customs that have persisted till today's times, Such as my late husband once surprised me by letting out a loud whistle at lightning and the following thunder. Ancient romans did that also. and the expression "Jiminy" supposedly from a Roman expression"Gemini" meaning Castor and Pollux(Have I spelled that correct??) Can any one add anything?? Flavia
