"ANGITIA" HAD A TEMPLE AND A SACRED GROVE ON THE SHORES OF "LAKE FUCINO". THE MARSI HONORED HER BY DRAPING HER STATUE WITH LIVE SNAKES AS A SYMBOL OF HEALING AND CARRYING HER TO THE SHORES OF THE LAKE. IN RETURN, "ANGITIA" WOULD PROTECT AND HEAL HER WORSHIPPERS, ALSO TEACHING THEM HOW TO CHARM SNAKES, CURE SNAKEBITES, AND USE HERBS FOR HEALING.
WHEN THE ROMANS CONQUERED THE MARSI, CHRISTIAN AUTHORITIES BANISHED ALL PAGAN RELIGIONS AND WORSHIP OF "ANGITIA" WAS SUPPRESSED. HOWEVER, SOME OF HER RITUALS DID SURVIVE AND ARE NOW DEDICATED TO SAN DOMENICO, THE SAINT NOW WORSHIPPED IN THE TOWNS THAT WERE ONCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE MARSI.
