She was the wife of Jupiter and the mother of Mars. She was identified with the Greek goddess Hera. Juno was worshipped under many names and with different functions: Juno Sospita Juno the Savior was the patron goddess of the state. The Temple of Juno Sospita was in the Forum Holitorium in Rome. Her festival was on February 1st. On a coin of the Procilia family she has on her tunic a goat skin, which also serves as the covering of her head. The points of her shoes are turned up, after a fashion which was renewed in the 12th century AD. She is armed with a buckler and lance to defend the people under her protection. The serpent which is at her feet is a symbol of the health and safety which they owe to her, and also serves to typify the serpent to which a young girl of Lanuvium went every year to offer it nourishment in its cavern.
