Note 99 — BOOK XXI
Evelyn S. (Evelyn Shirley) Shuckburgh translation
Dies forte, quibus Ancilia moventur, religiosi ad iter inciderant. Livy, 37. 33. The festival of Mars, during which the ancilia were carried about, was on the 1st of March and following days. If this incident, therefore, took place in the late spring or summer of B.C. 190, the Roman Calendar must have been very far out.
