The 'Saturnalia', Macrobius's encyclopedic celebration of Roman culture written in the early 5th century BCE, has been prized since the Renaissance as a treasure trove of otherwise unattested lore. Cast in the form of a dialogue, it treats subjects as diverse as the divinity of the Sun and the quirks of human digestion.
