Ambarvalia

Relief depicting the three animals sacrificed at the Ambarvalia as part of a suovetaurilia (a sow, a sheep, and a bull)

Ambarvalia was a Roman agricultural fertility rite, involving animal sacrifices and held on 29 May[1] in honor of Ceres, Bacchus[2] and Dea Dia.[3] However, the exact timing could vary since Ambarvalia was a "fariae conceptivae" - a festival not bound to a fixed date.[4]
