* The people of Fulginium. From Cicero we learn that it was a mu- 

 nicipal town. The modem city of Foligno has risen on its site. An 

 inscription discovered here has preserved the name of Fulginia, probably 

 a local divinity. 



3 The people of Forum Flaminii, situated on the Flaminian Way, where 

 it first entered the Apennines, three miles from Fulginium. It was here 

 that the Emperors Gallus and Volusianus were defeated and slain by 

 ^milianus, a.d. 256. The ruins at the spot called Giovanni pro 

 Fiamma mark its site. The site of Forum Julii appears to be unknown, 

 as also that of Forum Brentani. 



* The people of Fonun Sempronii, the only town in the valley of the 

 Metaurus. The modem city of Fossombrone, two miles distant, has 

 thence taken its name. Considerable vestiges of the ancient town are 

 still to be seen. The battle in which Hasdrubal was defeated by the Roman 

 consuls Livius and Nero, B.C. 207, was probably fought in its vicinity. 



* The people of Iguvimn, an ancient and important town of Umbria. 

 Its site is occupied by the modem city of Gubbio. Interamna on the 

 Nar has been previously mentioned. 



* The people of the town of Mevania, now called Bevagna, in the duchy 

 of Spoleto. The Mevanionenses were the people of Mevanio, or Meva- 

 niolae, in the vicinity of Mevania, and thought by Cluver to be the modem 

 Gfaleata. 



* Their town was Matilica, which still retains that name. It is situate 

 in the Marches of Ancona. 



7 Their town stiU retains the name of Nami. 



s Then" town was sumamed Favonia and Camcllaria, to distinguish 

 it from several others of the same name. The present Nocera stands on 

 its site. 



' The people of Ocrictdum, now Otricoli, previously mentioned. 



^^ According to Hardouin, the ruins of Ostra are those near Monte 

 Nuovo, now Sinigaglia, but D'Anville thinks that the modem Corinaldo 

 marks its site. 



" Nothing is known of the Plestini, nor yet of the Pitulani, who seem 

 to have been a different people to those mentioned in the First Region. 



^2 The town of Sentis, according to D'Anville and Mannert, was in the 

 vicinity of the modem town of Sasso Ferrato.
