26 September (ante diem VI Kalendas Octobres), the anniversary of the founding of the Temple of Venus Genetrix in Caesar's Forum in Rome. News comes that on this day a group of Orthodox Christians attacked the temple of Jupiter Perennus and injured M. Octavius Corvus, who was trying to defend the altar there. Corvus is now hospitalized and we are trying to find out additional information.
M. Moravius Piscinus has posted information about other, similar attacks.
As always, we support the work of the community in Poltava. Donations can be sent to them using the Paypal box on this page.
Further information will be posted here as it becomes known.
