The reciprocity of the two gods' situations is subsumed under the role of opener and closer played by Janus as Ovid states: ""Why are you hidden in peace, and open when the arms have been moved?"" Another analogous correspondence may be found in the festival of the Quirinalia of February, last month of the ancient calendar of Numa. The rite of the opening and closure of the Janus Quirinus would thus reflect the idea of the reintegration of the "miles" into civil society, i.e. the community of the "quirites", by playing a lustral role similar to the "Tigillum Sororium" and the "" located at the south of the Campus Martius. In Augustan ideology this symbolic meaning was strongly emphasised.
