Text Appearing Before Image:
us; and his body was placed in the sepulchre of Gallienus, which is 9miles from the city (Porta Capena) on the Appian way (Aurelius Victor,Ep. xl. 3). Some have located Tres Tabernse at Sermoneta, 23 miles,others at Cisterna, 30 miles from Rome. In the first case Cicero would havetaken five hours to do the 20 miles, and in the second case five hours to do13 miles; besides, the Antian joins the Appian way 11 miles from Rome.These writers were evidently misled by the medieval forgery known as theTabula Peutingeriana, which is in the Vienna Library. Appii Forum was a town of the Volsci, 43 miles from Rome, where travel-lers embarked or disembarked, passing the Pontine marshes by means of thecanal. Horace ( Sat. i. 5) describes it as stuffed with sailors and surlylandlords. These places are interesting, being the meeting-places of theRoman Christians with St. Paul. And from Rome, when the brethrenheard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Tres Taber-nse (Acts xxviii. 15).
