Notes on Roman Commerce
The immense mound of many million broken jars known as Monte Testaccio—still to be seen at the old emporium of Rome—provides in the trade-marks some material not elsewhere available for the study of Roman commerce; and Dressel's publication of many hundred of these marks ( CIL xv, 2) deserves the highest praise for the patience expended in their transcription, despite the fact that later scholars have had to correct many of the conclusions that D…

On Augustus and The Aerarium
In a very persuasive article in the Sitzungsberichte of the Berlin Academy (1931, p. 772 ff.) Wilcken has argued that Augustus in the third section of his Res Gestae enumerated only the expenses that he paid out of his patrimonium ,his privatum , and the manubiae , and that Mommsen, Hirschfeld, and Rostovtzeff were probably in error when they supposed that some of these payments derived from the Fiscus. To Wilcken's argument, which I accept in th…

The Bacchanalian Cult of 186 B.C
There is no little division of opinion regarding the provenance of the Bacchanalian rites which were suppressed with much cruelty by the Senate in 186 B.C. Since the Dionysiac orgies were native to Phrygia, and since Livy tells the story in question immediately after describing the immoral practices that were brought back from Asia by the returning army of Manlius Vulso in 187, it has frequently been assumed that Anatolia was the source of these …

Caesar at the Rubicon
The first few chapters of Caesar's Bellum Civile are notoriously untrustworthy. Much has been done by Nissen, Schmidt and others towards re-telling the story more truthfully, but our accounts are not yet fully satisfactory. Caesar's statement that he met the tribunes only after crossing the Rubicon is at first sight startling and does not accord with the story as told by Plutarch and Appian; for both of these historians make much of the fact that…

Clavdivs and the Pavian Inscription
The Pavian inscription ( C.I.L . v. 6416), which is usually interpreted as indicating Augustus' last settlement of the succession, contains the name of Claudius besides those of the Julian line. Mommsen ( Ber. d. säcks. Gesellsch . 1850, pp. 315 ff.) takes this fact as indicating that Claudius, though not adopted into the Julian line, was still in some way considered a member of the imperial household. I think that there is good ground for suspec…

Placentia and the Battle of the Trebia
The location of the battle of the Trebia is still a matter of dispute despite the thirty-two discussions of it cited in Kromayer's Antike Schlachtfelder (1912) and several offered since. There is more at stake in the problem than mere curiosity about the place, more even than a desire to appraise rightly the military judgment of Scipio and Hannibal. There is involved the reputation for reliability of Polybius and Livy, faith in whom is severely s…

Vergil's Res Romanae
Donatus, after enumerating Vergil's early poems, proceeds ( Vita Verg . 19): ‘Mox cum res Romanas inchoasset, offensus materia, ad Bucolica transiit.’ We have learned to distrust such statements about Vergil's early life, having discovered that an all too literal interpretation of the Bucolics provided a large part of Suetonius' data. The line quoted above may be nothing but an inference from Eclogue VI. 3: cum canerem reges et proelia, Cynthius …

The Scipionic Inscriptions
Historians and grammarians, palaeographers, and epigraphers have long employed the Scipionic inscriptions as providing accurate data for the period of about 200 B.C. A recent article, however, appearing in this journal, written by the distinguished grammarian, Professor Fay, just before his untimely death, questions the authenticity of these inscriptions, chiefly on grammatical grounds. The inscriptions are so important that it might be well to c…

Notes on Catvllvs
CATVLLVS LXVIII. 157 contains a crux in the last word which has continued to defy editors. In ending his long elegy to Manlius, Catullus showers his gratitude upon him and all who have served him in his first efforts to meet Lesbia: Sitis felices et tu simul et tua uita et domus, in qua nos lusimus, et domina et qui principio nobis terram dedit aufert a quo sunt primo omnia nata bona
