[Lares Familiares]

The Lares of the household were basically a sort of spiritual hodgepodge of the families ancestors. My understanding is that they were essentially a familial deity. Each house typically had a shrine to their Lar and would offer tributes to it so that it would protect and provide for the family (good crops, etc.)

 

I'm not too familiar with the sons of Mercury so I am not sure how or if they relate to this practice though.
