1131. ‘Versibus quos olim Fauni vatesque canebant.’ Ennius in Varro, L. L. 7. 36. See Nettleship, Essays in Latin Literature, p. 50 foll.
1132. Mannhardt, A. W. F. 113 foll.
1133. L. L. 7. 36.
1134. Georg. 1. 10. The introduction of the Greek Dryads may be thought to throw suspicion upon the Latinity of these Fauni of Virgil. But in Aen. 8. 314, the similar conjunction of Fauni and Nymphae is followed by words which seem to mark a true Italian conception.
1135. Lex. s. v. Faunus, 1454.
1136. Aen. 8. 314.
1137. Cp. Ovid, Fasti, 3. 315 ‘Di sumus agrestes et qui dominemur in altis Montibus,’ &c. Cp. Preller, i. 386.
1138. Monumenti Antichi, vol. v. (Barnabei). Von Duhn, translated in Journal of Hellenic Studies, 1896, p. 120 foll.
1139. Röm. Myth. i. 104 foll.
1140. Virg. Aen. 8. 601, and Serv.’s note: ‘Prudentiores dicunt eum esse ὑλικὸν θέον, hoc est deum ὕλης.’ Silvanus may have been a true tree-spirit; Mannhardt, A. W. F. 118 foll.; Preller, i. 392.
1141. Vol. i. 335, ed. Hauthal.
1142. See above, p. 126. It may be noticed that the Bona Dea, whose solemn rite occurs also at the beginning of this month, was identified with Fauna, the female form of Faunus (R. Peter, in Lex. s. v. Fauna); i. e. their powers for good and evil were thought to be much alike.
1143. Preller, i. 381 and reff.
1144. See under Lupercalia, p. 320.
1145. Ovid, Fasti, 3. 291 foll. I am glad to see that Wissowa accepts this story as genuine Italian (Lex. s. v. 1456).
1146. Cic. de Div. 1. 101; Livy, 2. 7 (Silvanus), and Dion. Hal. 5. 16 (Faunus) of the battle by the wood of Arsia.
1147. Fasti, 4. 649 foll.
1148. Aen. 7. 81 foll.
1149. Calpurnius, Ecl. 1. 8 foll.
1150. Cp. Tylor, Primitive Culture, i. 341 foll.; Sir A. Lyall, Asiatic Studies, ch. 2.
1151. Antike Wald- und Feldkulte, p. 152.
1152. See the cuts of two bronze statuettes which Wissowa, following Reifferscheid, believed to represent the un-Graecized Italian Faunus, at the end of the article ‘Faunus’ in Lex. 1460. But it is at least very doubtful whether Reifferscheid was right in his opinion.
1153. By an error Silvius has entered it on the 12th.
1154. For Inuus see on Lupercalia, and Livy, i. 5.
1155. de Feriis, xii. His other argument, that Inuus is not a nomen, but a cognomen, is less satisfactory. Can we always be sure which is which? (e. g. Saturnus, Janus).
1156. Festus, p. 340.
1157. de Mensibus, p. 118, ed. Bekk.; quoted by Mommsen, C. I. L. i 2,. 336.
1158. L. L. v. 41.
1159. Ibid. vi. 24.
1160. Antistius Labeo, ap. Festum, 348: ‘Septimontio, ut ait Antistius Labeo, hisce montibus feriae. Palatio, cui sacrificium quod fit Palatuar dicitur. Veliae, cui item sacrificium, Fagutali, Suburae, Cermalo, Oppio, Cispio monti.’ Before ‘Cispio’ the MS. has ‘Caelio monti,’ which must be a copyist’s blunder. The Subura is by courtesy a mons; also a pagus (Festus, 309), a regio (ib.), and a tribus (ib.).
1161. Staatsrecht, iii. 112. O. Gilbert has made a great to-do about the development of these communities; Gesch. u. Topogr. i. 39 foll. But where else will he find three distinct settlements in a space as small as that of the Palatine? The discoveries at Falerii and Narce would have saved him the labour of much web-spinning. Plutarch, Q. R. 69, has (accidentally perhaps) expressed the matter rightly.
1162. Monumenti Antichi, vol. v. p. 15 foll.
1163. Mon. Ant. p. 110 foll. (Barnabei).
1164. Cic. de Domo, 28. 74.
1165. At Ariminum, and Antioch in Pisidia (Mommsen, Staatsrecht, iii. 113, note).
1166. Festus, 348, cp. 245.
1167. Preller, i. 414.
1168. Q. R. 69. Plutarch does not say in what parts of the city the vehicles were forbidden. The feast existed in his day, and indeed long afterwards (Tertull. Idololatr. 10). It seems to have become a general feast of the whole people.
1169. Macrob. i. 10. 2.
1170. See below on Saturnalia, p. 271.
