[Footnote 67:  This was the only means of getting out to the little stream that ran down the depression shown in plate III, and over to the hill of S. Martino, which with the slope east of the city could properly be called Monte Glicestro outside the walls.]

[Footnote 68:  This gate is now a mediaeval tower gate, but the stones of the cyclopean wall are still in situ, and show three stones, with straight edge, one above the other, on each side of the present gate, and the wall here has a jog of twenty feet.  The road out this gate could not be seen except from down on the Cave road, and it gave an outlet to some springs under the citadel, and to the valley back toward Capranica.]

[Footnote 69:  This last stretch of the wall did not follow the present wall, but ran up directly back of S. Maria del’Carmine, and was on the east side of the rough and steep track which borders the eastern side of the present Franciscan monastery.]

[Footnote 70:  The several courses of opus quadratum which were found a few years ago, and are at the east entrance to the Corso built into the wall of a lumber store, are continued also inside that wall, and seem to be the remains of a gate tower.]

[Footnote 71:  See page 28.  This gap in the wall is still another proof for the gate, for it was down the road, which was paved, that the water ran after rainstorms, if at no other time.]

[Footnote 72:  This gate is very prettily named by Cecconi, Spiegazione de Numeri, Map facing page 1:  l’antica Porta di San Martino chiusa.]

[Footnote 73:  Since the excavations of the past two years, nothing has been written to show what relations a few newly discovered pieces of ancient paved roads have to the city and to its gates, and for that reason it becomes necessary to say something about a matter only tolerably treated by the writers on Praeneste up to their dates of publication.]

[Footnote 75:  This road is proved as ancient by the discovery in 1906 (Not. d.  Scavi, Ser. 5, 3 (1906), p. 317) of a small paved road, a diverticolo, in front of the church of S. Lucia, which is a direct continuation of the Via degli Arconi.  This diverticolo ran out the Colle dell’Oro.  See Cecconi, Storia di Palestrina, p. 20, n. 37; Fernique, Etude sur Preneste, p. 122; Marucchi, Guida Archeologica, p. 122.]

[Footnote 76:  This road to Marcigliano had nothing to do with either the Praenestina or the Labicana.  Not. d.  Scavi, Ser. 5, 5 (1897), p. 255; 2 (1877-78), p. 157; Bull. dell’Inst., 1876, pp. 117 ff. make the via S. Maria the eastern boundary of the necropolis.]

[Footnote 77:  Not. d.  Scavi, 11 (1903), pp. 23-25.]

[Footnote 78:  Probably the store room of some little shop which sold the exvotos.  Bull. dell’Inst., 1883, p. 28.]
