Pero (Roman Charity)
Roman Charity ( la, Caritas romana; it, Carità Romana) is the exemplary story of a woman, Pero, who secretly breastfeeds her father, Cimon, after he is incarcerated and sentenced to death by starvation. History The story is recorded in ''Factorum ac dictorum memorabilium'' (Nine Books of Memorable Acts and Sayings of the Ancient Romans) by the ancient Roman historian Valerius Maximus, and was presented as a great act of ''pietas'' (i.e., filial piety) and Roman honour. A painting in the Temple of Pietas depicted the scene. Additionally, wall paintings and terracotta statues from the first century excavated in Pompeii suggest that visual representations of Pero and Cimon were common, however it is difficult to say whether these existed in response to Maximus's anecdote or preceded – inspired – his story. Among Romans, the theme had mythological echoes in Juno's breastfeeding of the adult Hercules, an Etruscan myth. Maximus's anecdote of Pero and Cimon posits the follow ...
