Berosus, in the first book of his Babylonian history, says; That in the eleventh month, called Loos, (16) is celebrated in Babylon the Feast of Sacea, for five days; in which it is the custom that the masters should obey their domestics, one of whom is led round the house, clothed in a royal garment, and him they call Zoganes.
