ed by Cato (p. 55, Jordan). 2. III. XI. The Nobility in Possession of the Equestrian Centuries 3. III. XI. Festivals 4. IV. I. General Results 5. III. XII. Results 6. I. XIII. Landed Proprietors 7. It was asserted even then, that the human race in that quarter was pre-eminently fitted for slavery by its especial power of endurance. Plautus (Trin. 542) commends the Syrians: -genus quod patientissitmum est hominum-. 8. III. XII. Rural Slaves ff., III. XII. Culture of Oil and Wine, and Rearing of Cattle 9. III. XII. Pastoral Husbandry 10. III. I. The Carthaginian Dominion in Africa 11. The hybrid Greek name for the workhouse (-ergastulum-, from --ergaszomai--, after the analogy of -stabulum-, -operculum-) is an indication that this mode of management came to the Romans from a region where the Greek language was used, but at a period when a thorough Hellenic culture was not yet attained. 12. III. VI. Guerilla War in Sicily 13. III. XII. Falling Off in the Population 14. IV. I. War against Aristonicus 15. IV. I. Cilicia 16. Even now there are not unfrequently found in front of Castrogiovanni, at the point where the ascent is least abrupt, Roman projectiles with the name of the consul of 621: L. Piso L. f. cos. 17. II. III. Licinio-Sextian Laws 18. III. I. Capital and Its Power in Carthage 19. II. III. Influence of the Extension of the Roman Dominion in Elevating the Farmer-Class 20. III. XI. Assignations of Land 21. II. II. Public Land 22. III. XII. Falling Off of the Population 23. IV. II. Permanent Criminal Commissions 24. III. XI. Position of the Governors 25. III. IX. Death of Scipio 26. III. XI. Reform of the Centuries 27. III. VII. Gracchus 28. IV. I. War against Aristonicus 29. IV. I. Mancinus 30. II. III. Licinio-Sextian Laws 31. II. III. Its Influence in Legislation 32. IV. I. War against Aristonicus 33. II. III. Attempts at Counter-Revolution 34. This fact, hitherto only partially known from Cicero (De L. Agr. ii. 31. 82; comp. Liv. xlii. 2, 19), is now more fully established by the fragments of Licinianus, p. 4. The two accounts are to be combined to this effect, that Lentulus ejected the possessors in consideration of a compensatory sum fixed by him, but accomplished nothing with real landowners, as he was not entitled to dispossess them and they would not consent to sell. 35. II. II. Agrarian
