Di Penates

Aeneas and the Penates, from a 4th-century manuscript

In ancient Roman religion, the Di Penates or Penates (/pˈntz/; Latin:dī penātēs [ˈdiː ˈpɛ.naːteːs]) were among the dii familiares, or household deities, invoked most often in domestic rituals. When the family had a meal, they threw a bit into the fire on the hearth for the Penates. They were thus associated with Vesta, the Lares, and the Genius of the paterfamilias in the "little universe" of the domus.
