Context: the devotio was an extreme form of votum in which a Roman general vowed to sacrifice his own life in battle along with the enemy to chthonic gods in exchange for a victory - Wikipedia In practice, a roman general would offer his life to the gods of the underworld and throw himself at the enemy in the purpose of killing himself.
