15 Why is it that they were wont to sacrifice no living creature to Terminus,This is certainly not true of later times; Cf. for example, Horace, Epodes, 2. 59. in whose honour they held the Terminalia, although they regard him as a god?

15 Is it that Romulus placed no boundary-stones for his country, so that Romans might go forth, seize land, and regard all as theirs, as the Spartan said, Cf.Moralia, 210 e with the note (Vol. III. p. 257). which their spears could reach; whereas Numa Pompilius, Cf. Life of Numa, xvi. (70 f); Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Roman Antiquities, ii. 74. 2 ff. a just man and a statesman, who had become versed in philosophy, marked out the boundaries between Rome and her neighbours, and, when on the boundary-stones he had formally installed Terminus as overseer and guardian of friendship and peace, he thought that Terminus should be kept pure and undefiled from blood and gore?

16 Why is it that it is forbidden to slave-women to set foot in the shrine of Matuta, and why do the women bring in one slave-woman only and slap her on the head and beat her? Cf. Life of Camillus, v. (131 b-c); Ovid, Fasti, vi. 551 ff. with Frazer’s note.
