	Penates - LoveToKnow 1911
		In the household shrine the image of the Lar (dressed in a toga) was placed between the two images of the Penates, which were represented as dancing and elevating a drinking-horn in token of joy and plenty.
		Before meals the blessing of the gods was asked, and after the meal, but before dessert, there was a short silence, and a portion of food was placed on the hearth and burned.
		If the hearth and the images were not in the eating-room, either the images were brought and put on the table, or before the shrine was placed a table on which were set a salt-cellar, food and a burning lamp.

		Mechanical devices as seen in the city clock tower gears, Old Home's bell tower, and the giant windmills that break up the flat landscape of the fields, are all realistically detailed and move as fluidly as they should.
		The Toga are the citizens that are allowed to leave the city's walls and venture into the rest of the world, and are appropriately nomadic in design.
		In addition to their robes, they all wear wooden masks to cover-up their identities and in a sense separate themselves from the rest of the townspeople.

		I dare to identify this shrine Ambahatta or Ambatta of the early Buddhist texts with the pre-Islamic shrine Amrah on the Northern end of the Dead Sea.
		A modern historian describes this shrine as follows: "Qusayr Amrah" meaning the little castle of "Amrah" stands on the edge of a wadi in the desert of the Northern end of Dead Sea.
		With the passage of time, these temples, their resident monks and their followers were subject to the influence of local popular cults and beliefs of various supernatural beings and divinities, thus giving rise to new syncretistic religions and religious sects.

		The name suggests that they had something to do with an aedes ('shrine'), but the Greek translation agoranomos implies that the aedile was a market superintendent.
		The discrepancy may be superficial, however, as the Roman tradition states that the first aediles were the assistants of the plebeian tribunes.
		So it is possible that the first aediles were market superintendents, and as representatives of the merchants did not belong to the aristocracy, whence they had to side with the Plebs in the conflict of the orders.
