  SUMMANUS - LoveToKnow Article on SUMMANUS
Summanus had a temple at Rome near the Circus Maximus, dedicated at the time of the invasion of Italy by Pyrrhus, king of Epirus (278), when a terracotta image of the god (or of Jupiter himself) on the pediment of the Capitoline temple was struck by lightning and hurled into the river Tiber.
Here sacrifice was offered every year to Summanus on the 20th of June, together with cakes called summanalia baked in the form of a wheel, supposed to be symbolical of the car o the god of the thunderbolt.
The later explanation that Summanus is a contraction from Summus Manium (the greatest of the Manes), and that he is to be identified with Dis Pater, is now generally rejected.

 Malleus Maleficarum - Introduction of 1928 Edition
Such deities were the Thracian Bendis, whose manifestation was heralded by the howling of her fierce fl hounds, and Hecate the terrible “QUeen of the realm of ghosts,” as Euripides calls her, and the vampire Mormo and the dark Summanus who at midnight hurled loud thunderbolts and launched the deadly levin through the starless sky.
Nevertheless there is only too much reason to believe that this devil-god had his votaries, although his liturgy was driven underground and his supplicants were obliged to assemble in remote and secret places.
Towards the end of the fifth century, the Carthaginian Martianus Capella boldly declares that Summanus is none other than the lord of Hell, and he was writing, it may be remembered, only a few years before the birth of S.

 Augury
The sky was divided into sixteen regions for divining, and eleven different kinds of lightning were recognized by the Etruscan, each wielded by a different god.
The Romans adopted a similar method from the Etruscans that they included alongside their other forms of augury, but recognized only three gods and one goddess as wielders of lightning – Iuppiter, Veiovis, Summanus, and Minerva.
(Pliny, Natural History II.138 only recognized Iuppiter and Summanus.) While the Romans greatly acknowledged the Etruscan influence, what they borrowed from their northern neighbors was only accretions on a traditional core of practices that were essentially Italic in origin.

 Du Bandia Grasail lineage
To the best of my knowledge, these are the covens that descend from Du Bandia Grasail, an Alexandrian coven based in the Boston area in the early 1970's.
Du Bandia Grasail was founded by Summanus, whose initiations came direct from Alex Sanders (after an alarmingly brief, but intense, period of study, I understand).
Although Du Bandia Grasail lasted only five years, many of the initiates of that group went on to form their own covens and train more people, and eventually grew into a large extended family of related covens.
