  or Three Graces, and she is known as the goddess of
  "sensual pleasures", "voluptas" meaning "pleasure" or "delight".
  Some Roman authors mention a goddess named Volupia, who had a temple, the Sacellum Volupiae on the Via Nova by the Porta Romana, where sacrifices were offered to the Diva Angerona. The name appears to signify "willingness".
