Lua (goddess)

In Roman mythology, Lua was a goddess to whom soldiers sacrificed captured weapons of enemy combatants.[1][2] She is sometimes referred to as "Lua Mater" or "Lua Saturni", the latter of which makes her a consort of Saturn.[1] It may be that Lua was merely an alternative name for Ops.[3]
