名詞

lībāmen n (genitive lībāminis); third declension

1. libation, offering to the gods; firstfruits

   Synonyms: lībāmentum, lībātiō

   • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 3.733–734:

     Nōmine ab auctōris dūcunt lībāmina nōmen
     lībaque, quod sānctīs pars datur inde focīs.

     Libations and cakes draw their names from the name of their inventor,
     because a portion of them is being offered upon the sacred hearths.
     (Ovid credits the god Liber, or Bacchus, with the origin of ancient sacred ritual practices, such as offering a ‘‘libamen’’ (libation) and a ‘‘libum’’ (cake). For another likely link to Liber’s name – and the Latin ‘‘libo’’ – see also the Greek λείβω, ‘‘to pour.’’)
