An unknown root + -ālia. One theory states that, while the festival was later performed in the Regia along the Via Sacra, the Regia used to reside on the Collis Quirinalis, which was formerly known as Agōnus and which gave the epithet Agōnensis to the Porta Collina.

(religion) a Roman festival held on January 9th, May 21st, December 11th, and probably March 17th in which the rex sacrorum sacrificed a ram to the gods
