Notes on the current edition

Ab Urbe Condita With An English Translation, books 1-10, 21-45, with periochae 11-20

1. Many of the place-names in the following sections are doubtful, some 9 by reason of corruptions in the text, some, probably, because Livy did not understand his sources, while others are not mentioned elsewhere. I have been content in general to repeat the 10 names as they are found in the Latin text I have followed, realizing that beyond question many of them are wrong. The route of the Romans can be followed more easily on the map than through notes. As one traces their course one wonders whether their dominating motive, in selecting the line of 11 march, was the topography of the country, the desire to come to grips with the Galatians as soon as possible, or the profits which quickly began to come in.
