_Journal of Hellenic Studies_, vol. xiii. 73. Professor Gardner is inclined to consider the myth as Phoenician rather than Greek, and attached to the Phoenician Melcarth = Herakles. The vase is in the Ashmolean Museum, and was found by the Keeper, Mr. Arthur Evans. Footnote 828: _Mon. dell’ Inst._ v. 25. But the character of the vase is archaic Ionian, as Prof. Gardner tells me; _Lex._ 2275. Footnote 829: H. Peter, _Fragmenta Hist. Rom._ p. 166 (= Solinus, i. 7). Footnote 830: _C. I.

Footnote 832: The day of the festival at Aricia is thought to have been also Aug. 13 (_Lex._ s. v. Diana, 1006). Footnote 833: Beloch, _Italischer Bund_, 180; Cato (ap. Priscian, 7. 337, ed. Jordan, p. 41) gives the names of the towns united in and by the Arician cult—Aricia, Tusculum, Lanuvium, Laurentum, Cora, Tibur, Pometia, Ardea. Footnote 834: Liv. I. 45 Dionys. 4. 26; Varro, _L. L._ 5. 43. Footnote 835: Dionys. l. c. See Jordan, _Krit. Beiträge_, 253. Footnote 836: So Liv. l. c.: other temples of Diana had deers’ horns, according to Plutarch, _Q. R._ 4. The cow was Diana’s favourite victim (Marq. 361); but we cannot be sure that this was not a feature borrowed from the cult of Artemis (Farnell, _Greek Cults_, ii. 592). Footnote 837: The passages from Livy quoted by Steuding (_Lex._ 1008) are hardly to the point, as the cult is not mentioned in them. Footnote 838: Plut. _Q. R._ 100. Footnote 839: Serv. _Aen._ 8. 564: cp. Liv. 22. 1, 26. 11. Footnote 840: Mannhardt, _A. W. F._ 328 foll. Footnote 841: Festus, 343, ‘Servorum dies.’ Footnote 842: See above, p. 75. Footnote 843: Strabo, Bk. 4, p. 180; Farnell, _Greek Cults_, ii. 529 and 592. Footnote 844: Liv. 5. 13: Apollo and Latona, Diana and Hercules, Mercurius and Neptunus. Footnote 845: _Lex._ 1007. The excavations at Nemi have produced several votive offerings in terra cotta of women with children in their arms. Cp. Ovid, _Fasti_, 3. 269. Plutarch tells us (_Q. R._ 3) that men were excluded from a shrine of Diana in the Vicus Patricius; but of this nothing further is known. Footnote 846: Plut. _Q. R._ 100; Jevons, _Introduction_, p. lxviii. Footnote 847: Frazer, _Golden Bough_, i. 187. Footnote 848: _C. I. L._ vi. 656, 658. Footnote 849: Frazer, _G. B._ i. 105: cp. Robertson Smith, _Religion of the Semites_, p. 128 foll. Serv. _Georg._ 3. 332 ‘Ut omnis quercus Iovi est consecrata, et omnis _lucus_ Dianae.’ (Hor. _Od._ 1. 21.) The reclaiming of Diana from the woodland to the homestead is curiously illustrated by an inscription from Aricia (Wilmanns, _Exempla_, 1767) in which she is identified with Vesta.
