Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Description of the Antiquities and Other Curiosities of Rome "Separate places were marked out for the senators and knights, where each might see the games. These were called fori. The spectators were on high seats, twelve feet from the ground, supported by wooden poles." Dionysius would lead us to think, that Livy had rather represented Tarquin's Circus in too mean a light. He tells us, that Tarquin was the first who erected covered seats, the spectators having formerly stood upon wooden planks. He also divided the whole into thirty curiae. The situation of the Circus Maximus is marked out by nature, otherwise scarcely any thing remains. The curved end was towards the south; the straight end, where were the Carceres, was towards the river. The walls, which surrounded it, and along which were the seats for the spectators, are entirely gone. All that can now be traced is a portion of the bottom of the wall at the curved end. According to Dionysius, the Circus was 31/2 stadia long, and 4 plethra (about 400 feet) wide. It contained 150,000 people. Pliny makes it only 3 stadia long, and 1 wide, containing 260,000. It is difficult to reconcile these statements. It might be thought, that the two authors were speaking of the building at different periods, and that the smaller number of people was contained in the original Circus, built by Tarquin.

The anti quitica, the churches, the works of art, the reli gions customs, and many other points connected with Rome, will bear to be treated of much more at length, than by merely conveying to the reader the impressions which passed at the time in the mind of the traveller who viewed them.
