[Footnote 79:  Bull. dell’Inst., 1871, p. 72 for tombs found on both sides the modern road to Rome, the exact provenience being the vocabolo S. Rocco, on the Frattini place; Stevenson, Bull. dell’Inst., 1883, pp. 12 ff., for tombs in the vigna Soleti along the diverticolo from the Via Praenestina.  Also at Bocce Rodi, one mile west of the city, tombs of the imperial age were found (Not. d.  Scavi, 10 (1882-83), p. 600); C.I.L., XIV, 2952, 2991, 4091, 65; Bull. dell’Inst., 1870, p. 98.]

[Footnote 80:  The roads are the present Via Praenestina toward Gallicano, and the Via Praenestina Nuova which crosses the Casilina to join the Labicana.  This great deposit of terra cottas was found in 1877 at a depth of twelve feet below the present ground level.  Fernique, Revue Arch., XXXV (1878), p. 240, notes 1, 2, and 3, comes to the best conclusions on this find.  It was a factory or kiln for the terra cottas, and there was a store in connection at or near the junction of the roads.  Other stores of deposits of the same kinds of objects have been found (see Fernique, l.c.) at Falterona, Gabii, Capua, Vicarello; also at the temple of Diana Nemorensis (Bull. dell’Inst., 1871, p. 71), and outside Porta S. Lorenzo at Rome (Bull.  Com., 1876, p. 225), and near Civita Castellana (Bull. dell’Inst., 1880, p. 108).]

[Footnote 82:  As one goes out the Porta S. Francesco and across the depression by the road which winds round to the citadel, he finds both above and below the road several reservoirs hollowed out in the rock of the mountain, which were filled by the rain water which fell above them and ran into them.]

[Footnote 83:  Cola di Rienzo did this (see note 59), and so discovered the method by which the Praenestines communicated with the outside world.  Sulla fixed his camp on le Tende, west of the city, that he might have a safe position himself, and yet threaten Praeneste from the rear, from over Colle S. Martino, as well as by an attack in front.]

[Footnote 85:  Nibby, Analisi, p. 510.  It could be seen in 1907, but not so very clearly.]

[Footnote 86:  Cecconi, Storia di Palestrina, p. 79, thinks this reservoir was for storing water for a circus in the valley below.  This is most improbable.  It was a reservoir to supply a villa which covered the lower part of the slope, as the different remains certainly show.]

[Footnote 88:  The mediaeval Italian towns everywhere made use of the Roman aqueducts, and we have from the middle ages practically nothing but repairs on aqueducts, hardly any aqueducts themselves.]
