The Foundations of Roman Italy
This book presents a picture of pre-Roman Italy as complete and as faithful as modern discovery could make it, when it was originally published in 1937. The evidence of archaeology is combined with the testimony of historical tradition and non-Latin dialects in a balanced account of elements no less diverse than those of modern Europe. This description of Italy in the middle of the last millennium B.C. illuminates the success of Rome in achieving…

A new Epithet of Juno
An inscription found in 1912 near Praeneste,1 and now easily accessible in the new edition of Vol. I. of the Corpus of Latin inscriptions ( CIL. I. pars 2, fasc. 1, 1918, No. 2439), records a dedication in honour of Juno PALOS-CARIA(e) (dat. sg.), an epithet previously unknown, and not yet, I believe, satisfactorily explained. Rosenberg's attempted explanation ( palus -i sens, obsc.—an extremely rare meaning, it should be observed—and stigare in …

Inscribed Fragments of Stagshorn from North Italy
In November, 1912, a carpenter, searching amongst the débris which had been precipitated from the top of a hill overlooking the country district of Magrè into the limestone quarries at its foot, discovered a fragment of a lead pig and four pieces of stagshorn with short inscriptions in an early Italic alphabet. The find was in due course reported to the officials in charge of antiquities coming to light in the province in which Magrè is situated,…

The Iovilae -Dedications from S. Maria di Capua
A Famous group of heraldic dedications, with inscriptions in the Oscan dialect, the iovilae -inscriptions as, in the uncertainty that prevails as to their real character, scholars have generally been content to call them (from the recurrence of the word d i u v i l a - or [in a later form] i ῧ v i l a -, presumed to be the name of the object dedicated, in all or nearly all of the dedicatory inscriptions), have long been a standing puzzle to stude…
Rehtia, the Venetic Goddess of Healing
Inscriptions from Magrè and the Raetic Dialect
The discovery of upwards of a score of fragments of stagshorn with inscriptions in a North Italic alphabet closely resembling the Venetic, but also in the use of some symbols ( a and h ) showing affinities with the ‘North-Etruscan’ alphabet, was reported in a careful record of the excavations in which the fragments came to light (excepting the first piece of horn, which was accidentally discovered by a carpenter), written by Pellegrini for the No…
An Inscribed ‘Raetic’ Fibula
Amongst material collected for Part II. of the Pre-Italic Dialects is a plaster cast of a bronze fibula of the ‘simple bow’ or ‘arched’ type found in the neighbourhood of Chur. The cast was sent by Dr. R. von Planta to Professor Conway, who passed it on to me. Study of the inscription, however, which is not, so far as I am aware, hitherto published, shows that it is not, as was thought, Raetic, but Gallo-Latin, as its provenance (which, in any ca…
The Alphabet of Vaste
All students of Greek epigraphy are familiar with the abecedarium discovered in 1805, ‘prope Bastam (the modern Vaste ) ruri quodam dicto Melliche ,’ by Luigi Cepolla, amongst whose papers (still preserved at Lecce in the Biblioteca Provinciate , Misc. Castromed. D. 29. 18) Mommsen found and published it in his Unteritalische Dialekte (1850). Cepolla's copy, though inaccurate, is not so bad, as I hope to show, as has usually been supposed. To be …
Oscan Deketasio- '*Decentarius
The magistrates described as degetasiús (n. pl. masc.) at Nola (Conway ID 93, cf. 94 = von Planta 124, 125) and as deketasiúí (dat. sg. masc.) at Abella (Conway 95 a 5 = von Planta 127) have generally been dismissed with a non liquet as to their precise functions. It is unfortunate that the etymology of their title is equally uncertain; for if that were precisely known it would, presumably, illuminate the nature of their office. But, the case bei…

Scholars follow error as willingly as truth, and accept opinion as readily as fact. A sentence falsely ascribed to Columella by Holder in his Alceltischer Sprachschatz (2.1245, 51-3) is to be found in no manuscript or printed edition of Columella. Whence Holder got it, remains a mystery, but at least twenty scholars have repeated it (from Holder) and ascribed it to Columella without stopping to verify the text (cf. PID 2.204). An object discovere…
