[Footnote 153:  Foggini, Fast. anni romani, 1774, preface, and Mommsen, C.I.L., I, p. 311 (from Acta acad.  Berol., 1864, p. 235; See also Henzen, Bull. dell’Inst., 1864, p. 70), were both wrong in putting the new forum out at le quadrelle, because a number of fragments of the calendar of Verrius Flaccus were found there.  Marucchi proves this in his Guida Arch., p. 100, Nuovo Bull. d’Arch. crist., 1899, pp. 229-230; Bull.  Com., XXXII (1904), p. 276.

The passage from Suetonius, De Gram., 17 (vita M. Verri Flacci), is always to be cited as proof of the forum, and that it had a well-marked upper and lower portion; Statuam habet (M.  Verrius Flaccus) Praeneste in superiore fori parte circa hemicyclium, in quo fastos a se ordinatos et marmoreo parieti incisos publicarat.]

[Footnote 158:  Tibur shows 1 to 32 and Praeneste 1 to 49 names of inhabitants from the Umbro-Sabellians of the Appennines.  These statistics are from A. Schulten, Italische Namen und Staemme, Beitraege zur alten Geschichte, II, 2, p. 171.  The same proof comes from the likeness between the tombs here and in the Faliscan country:  “Le tombe a casse soprapposte possono considerarsi come repositori per famiglie intere, e corrispondono alle grande tombe a loculo del territorio falisco”.  Not. d.  Scavi, Ser. 5, 5 (1897), p. 257, from Mon. ant. pubb. dall’Acc. dei Lincei, Ant. falische, IV, p. 162.]
