^ Once a considerable city of Latium. The modem city of San Grer- 

 mano has risen on its ruins, while the name of Monte Casino has been 

 retained by the monastery foimded near it by St. Bernard a.d. 529. 



* The present Calvi probably occupies its site. 



^ It is not named in history. Its site was probably between Palestrina 

 and II PigUo. 



■* The people of Cereatae, a town of Latium, It is supposed that the 

 ancient monastery of Casamari occupied its site, 



^ The people of Cora, an ancient city of Latium. The present Cori 

 stands on its site, and there are considerable remains of the ancient walls 

 and other buildings. 



^ The people of Castrimoenium, a colony of Sylla. It has been suggested 

 that these were the same people whom Phny speaks of at a svibsequent 

 place in this chapter as the Munieiises, an extinct people of Latium. If 

 so, the name was perhaps changed on the estabhshmeut here by SyUa 

 of his colony. It probably stood near the modern city of Marino. 



7 The people of Cingulmn, a city of Picenum, the site of wliich is 

 occupied by the modern Cingoli. 



^ It is conjectm-ed that Pabia was on the same site as the present 

 village of Rocca di Papa. 



^ The inhabitants of Forum PopUii in Campania; its site is miknown. 



^^ The people of Frusino, originally a Yolscian city. The modem 

 Frosinone occupies its site. 



^1 The people of Ferentinum, a city of the Hernici : the present city 

 of Ferentino stands on its site. The ruins are very extensive. 



^2 Probably the people of FregeUae, an ancient city of the Volscians. 

 Its site is now unknovra, but it was probably on the banks of the Liris, 

 opposite to the modem Ceprano. 



^^ The people of Fabrateria or Frabateria, a Yolscian city. A Roman 

 colony was placed there B.C. 124, by C, Gracchus, and probably the old 

 inhabitants for that reason styled themselves " Veteres." The ruins at 

 San Giovanni in Cerico, about three miles from Falvaterra, are supposed 

 to be those of tliis place, or at least of the new town or colony. In such 

 case Falvaterra may occupy the site of the original city, 



'^ The people of Ficulnea or Ficuha, a city of ancient Latium, on the 

 "Via Nomentana. It is supposed to have decayed soon after the reign of 

 M. AureUus. Its site was probably on the modem domain of Cesarini, 

 though some separate the ancient Latm city from the Roman town, and 

 fix the locahty of the former on the hiU called Monte Gentile, or that 

 of the Torre Lupara.
