27 February

The Equria is the annual horse-races held on the 27th of February and the 14th of March in the Campus Martius, in honor of Mars.
[I uess is time for me to again publish "Equiria" within Encyclopedia Ichnographica online.] If you happen to be in Rome, get in a car or taxi and race down the Corso and see how much fun reenactment can be.

271, 272 or 273 AD
Constantine born at Naissus (today's Nish, Serbia).
[Virtually all historians believe this is the first and only time Helena gave birth, but another story is told within The Odds of Ottopia.]
Today 1700 years ago, Constantine is celebrating his birthday with his father (and maybe even with his unknown to him half-sister who is presently his father's second wife) somewhere in Britannia, very possibly at today's York.

Poor Sigmund, that he came into this world as a mere mortal and not as the Messiah was so undeniably self evident. But that certainly didn't stop SF from establishing a new religion of the Self, complete with a Trinity of ego, id, and super-ego. [cf. Civilization And Its Discontents is full of metabolic (ie, dualistic creative/destructive) thinking.]

Welcome to the 24/7 myth buffet. I personally enjoy when it's "all you can eat."
