"Cornelius Lucius, | Scipio Barbatus, Gnaivod patre prognatus | fortis vir sapiensque, quoius forma virtu | tei parisuma fuit, consol censor aidilis | quei fuit apud vos, Taurasia Cisauna | Samnio cepit subigit omne Loucanam | opsidesque abdoucit."

Beyond doubt Sulla posted himself on the cross road which turns off from the Via Latina, along which the Samnites advanced, at Valmontone towards Palestrina; in this case Sulla communicated with the capital by the Praenestine, and the enemy by the Latin or Labican, road. Hardly any other name can well be concealed under the corrupt reading in Liv. 89 -miam in Samnio-; comp. Strabo, v. 3, 10.
