Talk:Jupiter Stone

The oath
The following statement from Nicolae Densuşianu should be checked, if it is credible:
 * 1) [1. The person making an oath hold a stone in his hand, and after pronouncing the sacramental formula, threw it away (Festus s. Lapidem). The same rite is still noticed today in some parts of Romania. “When the peasants take some vow or make a pledge, take in hand a stone or a stick, etc” (A.Marinescu, Galasesci village, Arges district)].
