Probably no individual subject in the whole field of the topography of ancient Italy has attracted the attention of scholars to a greater degree than the quest for Horace's Sabine farm. The appeal which any contribution to the discussion of this question is sure to make to the historical and the literary student alike, and the special interest which the recent excavations at the probable site of the villa have aroused, encourage me to publish a monument, hitherto, I believe, unnoticed, which appears to deserve serious consideration in this connexion. This monument (fig. 14) is a bas-relief of a good quality of limestone, height 1 ft. 10¾ ins. (0·58 m.), width I ft. (0·30 m.), built into the wall of the palace of the Marchese di Roccagiovine at the town of that name, not far from the well-known inscription (fig. 15) commemorating the restoration by Vespasian of a temple of Victoria. The relief represents a female figure, clad in chiton and himation, facing to front; the head is much worn; the right hand clasps the forelegs of a deer; the left hand is badly damaged, so that its action is no longer intelligible.
