the eartli. "We read tliat 300 of their towns were conquered 
by the Tusci ; at the present day we find on their coast the 
river -^sis\ Senogallia'^, the river Metaurus, the colonies of 
Panum Portunse^ and Pisanrum^, with a river of the same 
name ; and, in the interior, those of Hispellum^'^ and Tuder. 
Besides the above, there are the Amerini^, the Attidiates", 
the Asisinates^, the Arnates^, the ^sinates^^, the Camertes^\ 
the Casuentillani, the Carsulani^^j the Delates surnamed 
1 Now the Esino. 
2 So called from the G^aUi Senones. The modern city of Suiigaglia 
occupies its site. The river Metaurus is still called the Metauro. 
3 "The Temple of Fortune." At this spot the Flaminian Way joined 
the road from Ancona and Picenum to Ariminum. The modern city of 
Fano occupies the site, but there are few remains of antiquity. 
^ The modern Pesaro occupies the site of the town j the river is called 
the Fogha. 
* This was a flourishing town of Umbria. Augustus showed it espe- 
cial favour and bestowed on it the Grrove and Temple of Chtumnus, 
though at twelve miles' distance from the town. The modern town of 
Spello occupies its site, and very extensive remains of antiquity are still 
to be seen. It probably received two Roman colonies, as inscriptions 
mention the " Colonia Julia Hispelh" and the " Colonia Urbana Flavia." 
It is considered probable that Hispellum, rather than Mevania, was the 
birth-place of the poet Propertius. Tuder is supposed to have occupied 
the site of the modern Todi, on the Tiber. 
^ The people of Ameria, an important and flourishing city of Umbria. 
There are still remains of the ancient walls j the modern town of Amelia 
occupies its site. 
7 The site of Attidium is marked by the modern village of Attigio, 
two miles south of the city of Fabriano, to which the inhabitants of Atti- 
dium are supposed to have migrated in the middle ages. 
* The people of Asisium. The modern city of Assisi (the birth-place 
of St. Francis) occupies its site. There are considerable remams of the 
ancient town. 
9 The people of Arna, the site of which is now occupied by the town 
of Civitella d'Arno, five miles east of Perugia. Some inscriptions and 
other objects of antiquity have been found here. 
^0 The people of JEsis, situate on the river of the same name. It is 
still called lesi. Pliny, in B. xi. c. 97, mentions it as famous for the 
excellence of its cheeses. 
11 The people of Camerinum, a city of Umbria. The present Camerino 
occupies its site. Its people were among the most considerable of Um- 
bria. The site of the Casuentillani does not appear to be known. 
12 The people of Carsulse, an Umbrian town of some importance. Its 
ruins are still visible about half way between San Grermino and Acqua 
Sparta, ten miles north of Narni. Holsten states that the site was 
BtiH called CarsoH in his time, and there existed remains of an amphi-
