Mother of the Lares

The Mother of the Lares (Latin ''Mater Larum'') has been identified with any of several minor Roman deities. She appears twice in the records of the Arval Brethren as ''Mater Larum'', elsewhere as Mania and Larunda. Ovid calls her Lara, Muta (the speechless one) and Tacita (the silent one).〔Taylor, 301: citing "Mania" in Varro, ''Lingua Latina'', 9, 61; "Larunda" in Arnobius, 3, 41; "Lara" in Ovid, ''Fasti'' II, 571 ff: Macrobius, ''Saturnalia'', 1, 7, 34-5; Festus, p115 L.〕
==Arval rite==
Cult to ''Matres Larum'' is known through the fragmentary Arval rites to Dea Dia, a goddess of fruitfulness. The Arvals address Dia herself as ''Juno Dea Dia'', which identifies her with the supreme female principle. The mother of the Lares is addressed only as ''Matres Larum''; she is given a sacrificial meal (''cena matri Larum'') of ''puls'' (porridge) contained in a sacred, sun-dried earthenware pot ''(olla)''. Prayers are recited over the pot, which is then thrown from the temple doorway, down the slope on which the temple stands; thus, remarks Lily Ross Taylor,〔Taylor, Lilly Ross, "The Mother of the Lares", ''American Journal of Archaeology'', 29.3, (July - September 1925), pp 299 - 313.〕 towards the earth as a typically chthonic offering. On another occasion, the Arvals offer sacrificial recompense to various deities for a necessary pollution of Dia's sacred grove; the Mater Larum is given two sheep.〔Beard ''et al'', vol. 2, 151: section 6.2: CIL VI.2107, 2-13: ILS 5048. The grove was polluted by the use of iron tools when clearing up after a storm and lightning-strike. Iron was strictly forbidden in the sacred area.〕 The Arvals also invoke her children, in the opening lines of the Arval Hymn to Dia, which begins ''enos Lases iuvate'' ("Help us, Lares").〔Taylor, 299.〕
