Book Description
Excerpt from The Epigraphical Evidence for the Reigns of Vespasian and Titus The study of inscriptions and the evidence gathered from these monuments of past ages are greatly changing our histories of an cient Greece and Rome. By means of them disputed points are settled with certainty, dates are fixed, and innumerable facts are brought to light that could never have been learned from our ex tant literary sources. Hence it is that no historian of the present day can afford to neglect the science of epigraphy. This is true for any period from the late republic down to the fourth century of the empire, but it is especially true for the period of the Flavian emperors. Students of Roman history have suffered an irreparable loss from the fact that the Histories of Tacitus have survived only in a frag mentary form, breaking off just after the accession of Vespasian. Through this misfortune we are confined almost solely to the meagre outlines of Suetonius and Dio Cassius for the facts of the reigns of Vespasian and Titus.

It may commemorate the building of this bridge by Claudius and its restoration by Vespasian. The via Cassia led from Rome to Arretium, Florence, and Lucca. It was a frequented highway at least as early as Cicero's time.1 Via Flaminia. 118. Imp. T. Caesar divi Vespas./. Vespasianus Aug., pontif. max., tr. pot. XIIII,2 imp. XV, cos. VIII, p. p., cen.

Septempeda was a small town on a branch of this road leading from Nuceria, in Umbria, to Ancona. The milestones of the branch were numbered from Rome. The Flaminian road was found of great importance on occasion of the invasion of Italy by the forces of Vespasian under Antonius Primus.' Vespasian added to its convenience by constructing a tunnel through the rock at Intercisa.4 Via Flavia. 119. Imp. Caesar Vespasianus Aug., pontif.: ., trib. pot. X, imp. XVIIIl, censor, cos.
