Footnote 710: Mommsen in _C. I. L._ 321 (on July 7). Footnote 711: Varro, _L. L._6. 18; Marq. 325. Footnote 712: See Introduction, p. 7. This anomaly led Huschke to the inadmissible supposition that this was the single addition made to the calendar of Numa in the republican period. He accepts Varro’s explanatory story, _Röm. Jahr_, p. 224. Footnote 713: See below, p. 327. Footnote 714: _R. G._ i. 532: see Mommsen’s criticism in _C. I. L_ 321 f. Footnote 715: Macrob. 6. 11. 36; Plut. _Rom._ 29, _Camill._ 33. See also O. Müller’s note on Varro, _L. L._ 6. 18. Footnote 716: _L. L._ 6. 18. Footnote 717: This is Varro’s account; the Etruscans are a variant in Macrobius, l. c. Footnote 718: Dionys. 2. 56; Plut. _Rom._ 29. See Lewis, _Credibility of Early Roman History_, i. 430. Footnote 719: Introduction, p. 15. Footnote 720: Cic. _de Rep._ 1. 16; Plut. _Rom._ 27. Footnote 721: Liv. 1. 16 ‘Ad exercitum recensendum.’ Lustratio came to be the word for a review of troops because this was preceded by a religious _lustratio populi_. Footnote 722: e. g. Gilbert, i. 290; Marq. 325. Footnote 723: _L. L._ 6. 18. Details have vanished with the great work here quoted, the _Antiquitates divinae_. Footnote 724: Schwegler suggested the parallel, i. 534, note 20. For the Bouphonia see especially Mannhardt, _Myth. Forsch._ 68. For other such rites, Lobeck, _Aglaophamus_, 679, 680. Footnote 725: Bücheler, _Umbrica_, 114. Footnote 726: The idea of the scapegoat was certainly not unknown in Italy; Bücheler quotes Serv. (_Aen._ 2. 140) ‘Ludos Taureos a Sabinis propter pestilentiam institutos dicunt, _ut lues publica in has hostias verteretur_.’ See on the Regifugium, below, p. 328. Footnote 727: See examples in Frazer, _Golden Bough_, ii. 160 foll. The one from the Key Islands is interesting as including a flight of the people. Footnote 728: Nissen, _Landeskunde_, 406. Footnote 729: _C. I. L._ p. 269. Footnote 730: Macrob. 1. 11. 36; Plut. _Camill._ 33. Footnote 731: Aug. _de Civ. Dei_, 4. 8. Footnote 732: _de Feriis_, 9. Footnote 733: The last point is in _Camill._ 33-6: cp. _Rom._ 29. 6. Footnote 734: The bearing of these customs on the Nonae Caprotinae, and on the Greek story of Lityerses, was suggested by Mannhardt, _Myth. Forsch._ 32. Mr. Frazer gives a useful collection of examples, _G. B._ ii. 363 foll. The custom survives in Derbyshire (so I am told by Mr. S. B. Smith, Scholar of Lincoln College), but only in the form of making the stranger ‘pay his footing.’ Footnote 735: _G. B._ i. 381. Footnote 736: It was the custom, says Macrobius (i. 10) ‘ut patres familiarum, frugibus et fructibus iam coactis, passim cum servis vescerentur, cum quibus patientiam laboris in colendo rure toleraverant.’ The old English harvest- or mell-supper, had all the characteristics of Saturnalia (Brand, _Pop. Antiq._ 337 foll.).
