Juno Covella was written By Lawrence Durdin-Robertson in honor of the Goddesses of all nationalities and traditions.

Today, for example: The Matralia. (Seyffert, Dict.) "Matuta (usually Mater Matuta). An old Italian goddess of dawn and of birth, also goddess of harbours and of the sea, and hence identified with the Greek Leucothea. In her temple at Rome in the Forum Boarium, on the 11th of June, the Matralia, or festival of mothers, was celebrated in her honour by the women of Rome. . a matron who had not been married before was allowed to place a wreath on the statue of the goddess. The women first prayed for the well-being of their nephews and nieces, and then for that of their own children.

I'm enjoying this AMC show so far - and would say it is the best SF airing currently - that I am aware of.

I have not read the books but my SO has read the first of them and is also enjoying it. She can't recall a great many details from the book though - her memory doesn't work that way.

One tiny point that I am curious about - a detail that my SO doesn't remember - is whether the characters who have seen the Pez dispenser actually recognise duck as a duck? Do they know what ducks - or birds in general - are?

From episode 1, IIRC, it seems to be suggested that they did not understand what the things flying in the sky in the outside world were.

Anyway - what are your thoughts on Silo?
