Just found out that in Ancient Rome there were the so-called ‘decuriales pullarii’: priests who took care of the sacred chickens which were used for predictions for military campaigns.

Plenty of gods count war among their domains.
War is Bellona's name.
 She takes it straight from bellum, the word for war, and before that from the older form duellum, which is why her oldest name was Duellona.
