A Brief History of the Siberate of the Prophetic Sibil

In Etruria there is a certain city called Oenaria which they say is exceedingly strong for in the midst of it there is a lofty hill rising upwards to the height of thirty stadia. The inhabitants fearing lest some one should become desperate said over themselves those of their slaves who have been manumited and these have dominion over them but every year they appoint others of the same class in their stand. At Kumai in Italy there is shown it appears a subterranean bed chamber of the prophetic sibil who they see was of a very great age and had always remained a virgin being a native of Erythrai.
