Taurian Games - Event of the day - 13th May 2019

The Taurian Games were held in ancient Rome in honor of the di inferi, the gods of the underworld. The Taurian Games had horse and chariot races, on a course around turning posts, followed by bull-leaping contests. The Ludi Taurii were the only games held in the Circus Flaminius and typically only once every 5 years. Ceremonies to appease the di inferi and dead ancestors usually accompanied these games
