Question

A bolt of lightning marked the spot of this deity’s new temple on the Palatine, which honored his intercession at Naulochus. A ruler’s impious impersonation of this deity’s “Tormentor” aspect at a debaucherous banquet (-5[1])led to the cry that “the gods had eaten all the grain.” It’s not Zeus, but a serpentine mark manifested itself upon one woman’s body after this god impregnated her (15[1])as a snake while she slept. (-5[3])Suetonius relates that this god’s symbol (-5[1])emerged from the womb of (*) Atia (-5[1])in a dream experienced by her husband, Gaius Octavius. (-5[1])Games at Nicopolis were (-5[1])reestablished (10[1])to honor this deity’s (-5[3])aid at Actium by his purported (-5[2])son, Emperor (10[1]-5[1])Augustus. (10[3]-5[2])A consul (10[1])vowed to construct a temple to this god’s “Medicus” (-5[1])aspect during a plague. For 10 (10[1])points, (10[1])Roman (10[1])kings were known to consult (-5[1])what god’s Oracle (10[1])at (10[1])Delphi? (10[11])■END■ (10[24]0[3])
