The Quinquatria was a popular Roman festival in honour of the goddess Minerva (goddess of warriors, medicine and crafts). It was celebrated on 19th March. The Romans honoured the goddess Minerva with five days of festivities.
On the first day there were offerings of food and flowers for the goddess.
During the next three days gladiators fought in the amphitheatre.
On the last day there was a procession through the streets of the city.
