Note 1439 — MENSIS FEBRUARIUS
Reading edition
Gilbert, Gesch. und Topogr. i. 86, note, tries to make out that the Fabii belonged to the Palatine proper; and the other guild, not to the Quirinal, but to the Cermalus, and thus also to account for the fact that in Ovid’s story the Fabii come first to the feast; but all this is pure guesswork.
