	Carmen Arvale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Carmen Arvale is the preserved chant of the Arval priests or Fratres Arvales of ancient Rome.
		While passages of this text are obscure, it seems to seek the aid of Mars and the Lares (lases), beseeching Mars not to let ruts form in the fields, asking him to be satiated, and dance, and call forth sacred sowers.
		The Carmen Arvale was revived by Gerald Gardner as a Wiccan chant.

	Arval Brethren - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Arval Brethren (latin: Fratres Arvales) were a body of priests in ancient Rome who offered annual sacrifices to lares and gods to guarantee good harvests.
		Their task was the worship of Dea Dia, an old fertility goddess and probably an aspect of Ceres.
		On the three days of her May festival, the Ambarvalia, they offered sacrifices and led a procession chanting the Carmen Arvale, the exact meaning of which was not longer understood in later times.

	Incantation and Prayer
		For example, in magic rites, the purpose of which was to induce a dislocated or broken bone to come together, the incantation was sung (cantare).
		The two oldest prayers of the Romans which we possess--the Carmen Arvale and the Carmen Saliare--were both chanted.
		Fowler, who on the whole is not inclined to identify spell and prayer, writes 32 that the verses "seem certainly to belong rather to the region of magic than of religion proper." Repetition was also characteristic of the Carmen Arvale and the prayer of the Fratres Attiedii.

		The rites of the festival were addressed to Dia, goddess of "the sunlit sky"; she was asked to favor the proper ripening of the grain, symbolized in the rite by the continuity between green grain and grain that had become fully ripe.
		The Carmen Arvale, on the other hand, was addressed to Mars as defender of landed property and of the ager Romanus.
		A possibly late interpretation connects the Arval Brothers with Acca Larentia, the supposed nurse of Romulus and Remus, and thus associates them with the story of Romulus; this is consistent with the hypothesis that the Arval rites go back to the end of the period of the kings (sixth century BCE).
