nates \ the Spoletini^, the Suasini', the Sestinates'*, the 

 Suillates^ the Tadinates^, the Trebiates'', the Tuficani^, the 

 Tifernates® surnamed Tiberini, and the others called Metau- 

 renses, the Vesinicates, the TJrbinates, both those surnamed 

 Metaurenses^" and the others called Hortenses, the Yetto- 

 nenses", the Yindinates, and the Yiventani. In this district 

 there exist no longer the Teliginates who possessed Clu- 

 eiolum above Interamna, and the Sarranates, with their 

 towns of Acerrae^^, surnamed Yafriae, and Turocelum, also 

 called Yettiolum ; as also the Solinates, the Curiates, the 

 Pallienates, and the Apiennates. The Arienates also have 

 disappeared with the town of Crinovolum, as well as the 

 TJsidicani, the Plangenses, the Paesinates, and the Caelestini. 



* The people of Sarsina, an important town of Umbria, fomotis as 

 being the birth-place of the comic poet Plautus. It is now called Sas- 

 sina, on the Sayio. 



2 The people of Spoletiun, now Spoleto. It was a city of Umbria on 

 the Yia Flaminia, colonized by the Romans B.C. 242. In the later days 

 of the Empire it was taken by Totilas, and its walls destroyed. They 

 were however restored by Narses. 



* The people of Suasa ; the remains of which, according to D'Anville 

 and Mannert, are those seen to the east of the town of San Lorenzo, at a 

 place called Castel Leone. 



* The monastery of Sestino is supposed to stand on the site of Sesti- 

 num, their town, at the source of the river Pesaro. 



5 The site of their town is denoted by the modem Sigello in the 

 Marches of Ancona. 



^ Their town is supposed to have been also situate within the present 

 Marches of Ancona, where they join the Duchy of Spoleto. 



' Their town was Trebia. The modem Trevi stands on its site. 



8 The people of Tuficum, which Holsten thinks was situate between 

 MateHca and Fabrianimi, on the river called the Cesena. 



^ The site of Tifemum Tiberiniun is occupied by the present Citta di 

 Castello, and that of Tifemimi Metam-ense, or "on the Metaurus," by Sant 

 Angelo in Yado in the Duchy of Urbino. The first-named place was in 

 the vicinity of the estates of the Younger Phny. 



^^ D'Anville and Mannert are of opinion that TJrbania on the Metau- 

 rus, two leagues south-east of Urbino, marks the site of their town. The 

 Hortenses probably dwelt on the site of the present Urbino. 



^^ The site of their town was probably the present Bettona. The site 

 of the towns of the peoples next mentioned is unknown. 



^2 Nothing is known of its position. There were cities in Campania 

 and Cisalpine Graul also caUed Acerrse. The first has been mentioned 

 under the First Eegion. Of the other places and peoples mentioned in 

 this Chapter no particulars seem to have come down to us.
