Today is St. Hubert's Day. That is, the day on the Catholic calendar honoring this Saint.
St. Hubert lived more recently, post Roman Empire, having been born in 656 and living until 727. He was born in what is now southern France into a noble family, but was sent north to Paris at an early age. Due to political turmoil, he was one of many who ended up it Metz as sort of a noble refugee and we need to keep in mind that France, as a solid political entity, didn't exist at the time. Anyhow, he married one Floribanne, daughter of Dagobert, Count of Leuven, and the couple had a son, Floribert, later the Bishop of Liege. In this fluid political time, therefore, fate had taken Huber from Toulouse to Liège in an onward northern migration.
St. Hubert is the patron Saint of Hunters and is still celebrated in Northern Europe, where he is the patron of hunting associations. In Germany, hunters celebrated this day as Hubertustag, pausing in the hunting season to honor St. Hubert.
As we had just referenced him in the post noted above, and we're further noting this day ourselves.
