Saturnalia is a feast, in honour of Saturn, that originated in the Roman Empire (circa 800-510 BC). It was celebrated for the first time on 17 December 497 BC when the gods Saturn and Janus ruled Italy. These gods assured affluence, fertile land, good harvests and introduced writing to the people. Saturn's symbol was a sickle denoting that all citizens were equal and that no one had the right to individual possessions. During the feast of Saturnalia, the roles of slaves and masters were reversed. This varied work by Ben Haemhouts is suitable for competitions or concerts.
