Fortune Telling by Frances Collins

An example of Roman culture I have encountered is fortune telling. I encountered this at homecoming last year where there was a woman reading tarot cards. I also experienced this at camp this year with my friend Emma who knows how to read palms and gave us all our fortunes. This is Roman culture because the Romans used methods to determine their fortunes. One of these methods was reading livers. The Romans sacrificed animals and used the livers to see if their prayers to the Gods would be answered. Another example of the Romans trying to determine their fortune is Augary where they look to the sky and certain birds, trees or wind patterns answer questions they may have.
