NINTH ROOM (_entered from Sixth Room_).--Hall of bronzes and jewellery; a bronze statue of a warrior, found at Todi in 1835; shields, arrows, helmets, spurs, mirrors, &c.; a funeral bier from Cære; a bronze child with a bulla, supposed to represent Tages, the boy-god who sprang from a clod of earth at Tarquinii; a Roman war-chariot, found at the Villa of the Quintilii on the Appian Way; bronze toilet-cases (_cista mistica_); brazier with tongs on wheels; a rake with a hand for its handle; shovel--two swans bearing a boy and a girl form the handle. _In the centre of the hall_, Jewel-case of objects found in the tomb of _Mi Larthial_ ("I, the great lady") and of an Etruscan priest at Cervetri (Cære), from which town and its customs we get the word "ceremony." TENTH ROOM.--Bronze figure of a boy; and Roman lead pipes. ELEVENTH ROOM.--Copies of the frescoes found in the tombs at Vulci and Tarquinii; Etruscan vases. TWELFTH ROOM.--Imitation Tomb, with genuine peperino lions. THE INQUISITION. Returning from the Museum, on reaching the colonnade of S. Peter's, _turn off to the right_, through the middle of the colonnade. Opposite is the Palazzo del S. Uffizio,--the Inquisition, which was established here in 1536, and abolished by the Roman Republic in 1849. It is now used as a barrack, and the Inquisition holds its meetings in the Vatican. Passing at the back of the columns into the Borgo S. Michaele, and _turning to the right_, we enter the Borgo S. Spirito. _On the left_ is the fine tower of the Church of S. Michaele in Sassia, in which Raphael Mengs is buried. This name, Sassia, commemorates the Saxon settlement founded in 727, and the word "borgo" comes from the Saxon "burgh." _Beyond is_ THE PORTA S. SPIRITO, a massive gateway built by San Gallo in the walls erected by Leo IV. round S. Peter's and the Vatican, whence the district inside is called the Leonine City. _Outside the gate a steep ascent leads up to_ S. ONOFRIO--TASSO'S TOMB.
