None but Romans could have built such a monument, and have set it in such a place a wilderness of rock and rolling hill, scantily covered with low brushwood, and browsed over by a few sheep for such a purpose, too, in order to supply Nemausus with pure water.
In the Spanish peninsula the town of Braga in northern Portugal seems to stand alone. In Roman Africa Tunis, Algiers and Morocco no instance has survived the Arab conquest. For Orange see p. 107. Nîmes may possibly retain one or two streets of the Roman Nemausus, but it is very doubtful; see Menard's map of 1752. See further in general p. 142.
I pray the reader to observe how I spell the name of Nimes, with neither an s nor a circumflex, neither as Nismes, nor as Nimes, for both are wrong.
