[1733] The people of Corfinium, the chief city of the Peligni. It is supposed to have remained in existence up to the tenth century. Its ruins are seen near Pentima, about the church of San Pelino.
[1734] The site of Superæquum is occupied by the present Castel Vecchio Subequo.
[1735] The people of Sulmo, a town ninety miles from Rome. It was the birth-place of Ovid, and was famous for the coldness of its waters, a circumstance mentioned by Ovid in his Tristia, B. iv. ch. x. l. 4. It is now called Sulmona.
[1736] The people of Anxanum or Anxa, on the Sangro, now known as the city of Lanciano; in the part of which, known as Lanciano Vecchio, remains of the ancient town are to be seen.
[1737] The people probably of Atina in Samnium, which still retains the same name.
[1738] They probably took their name from the Lake Fucinus, the modern Lago Fucino, or Lago di Celano.
[1739] They dwelt in a town on the verge of Lake Fucinus, known as Lucus.
[1740] The ruins of Marruvium may still be seen at Muria, on the eastern side of Lake Fucinus.
[1741] It has been suggested, from the discovery of a sepulchral inscription there, that Capradosso, about nine miles from Rieti in the upper valley of the Salto, is the site of ancient Cliternia. The small village of Alba retains the name and site of the former city of Alba Fucensis, of which there are considerable remains.
[1742] The modern town of Carsoli is situate three miles from the site of ancient Carseoli, the remains of which are still visible at Civita near the Ostoria del Cavaliere. Ovid tells us that its climate was cold and bleak, and that it would not grow olives, though fruitful in corn. He also gives some other curious particulars of the place.—Fasti, B. iv. l. 683 et seq.
