A Latin deity called by the Greeks Ares. The god of war, of husbandry, of shepherds and seers. He was principally worshipped as the god of war, and is sometimes depicted in his chariot breathing death and destruction. He had a sister, Bellona, the goddess of war and cruelty." At the bottom, it states the card was "ISSUED BY JOHN PLAYER & SONS BRANCH OF THE IMPERIAL TOBACCO CO. (OF GREAT BRITAIN & IRELAND), LTD. NOTTINGHAM."
