FASTI,

The Roman Calendar, wherein all days of Feasts, Games and Ceremonies were mark'd. The six last Books of the Fasti of Ovid are lost. See Calendarium.

Fasti were also Table-Books, whereupon they wrote the Names of the Consuls, and the most memorable things that were transacted in the Commonwealth. The Consuls gave also some small Pocket-books of Silver or Ivory, wherein their Names were written, as Sidoni∣us Apollinaris says, speaking of the Consulship of Asterius datique fasti.
