Note 611 — CXLIII (A IV, 15)
Evelyn S. (Evelyn Shirley) Shuckburgh translation
This refers to the famous waterfall of Terni. An artificial cutting drained the River Velinus (which otherwise covered the high valley as a lake) into the Nar, which is in the valley below. What was good for the people of Reate was, of course, dangerous for the people of Interamna living below. M. Curius Dentatus was consul B.C. 290.
