Others say that they were named so in honour of Lu'ceres, king of Ardea, according to which theory the third would have been a Pelasgo-Tyrrhenian colony. We shall hereafter have occasion to remark, that the Lu'ceres were subject to the other tribes. The Pincian and Vatican hills were added at a much later period and these, with Janiculum, made the number ten. They were named as follow: 1.

In the time of Numa there were but four, but two more were added by Tarquin; probably the addition made by Tarquin was to give the tribe of the Lu'ceres a share in this important priesthood.

They were at first so disunited, that even the rights of intermarriage did not exist between them, and it was probably from Qui'rium that the Roman youths obtained the wives by force, which were refused to their entreaties. 5.
