'''Ceres''' was the goddess of fertility and agriculture in the [[Archadian Pantheon]].

Sacrifices of cows, comforted by a girl that has turned fifteen, were made to Ceres on the 2nd day of calends of September, beginning festivities in her name. Young noblewomen often were invited to perform this duty, such as [[Basilia Garantia XIX|Basilea]] in 205 [[AIC]]. During the sacrifice, the priest read aloud:

<div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">

|Et laudatione maxima magnifica

Salutamus te, Ceres divina

Et offerimus tibi pro futuris

Cevam candidam ab nostris

Et speramus auctumnum in anno die

Ut adfluens est ut illud hodie
|And with greatest praise

We greet you, goddess Ceres

And offer you for future days

Our white cow

And we hope that the next harvest

Is as bountiful as the one today

The festival that followed, centred around agriculture and commerce, transformed the forum into a feast hall with countless barrels of wine being offered to the thousands of people flooding in. Meat, beef, lamb, fish and pork, together with both Archadian and foreign vegetables and fruit were prepared. For the elite distinguished families of the city, a feast was held in the Palace.
