208 Liv.27.23.1-4 Temple of Fortuna struck by lightning Capua Temple of Mars struck by lightning Capua Graves were struck by lightning Capua Mice nibble at gold in the temple of Jupiter Cumae Swarm of bees in the forum Casinum Wall and gate struck by lightning* Ostia Vulture flew in to the temple of Jupiter Caere Blood flows in the sea Volsinii Note: Rasmussen counts this as two (Rasmussen 2003: 68) 207 Liv.27.37.1-15 Rain of stones Veii Temple of Jupiter struck by lightning Menturnae Grove of Marica struck by lightning Menturnae Walls struck by lightning Atella Gate struck by lightning Atella Blood flowed in the gate Menturnae Wolf walk through the gate and mangles a guard Capua Rain of stones at the armilustrium Roma Hermaphrodite as big as a four year old was born Frusinone Note: There is also the incidence of lightning striking the temple of Juno Regina during an expiation. This is counted as a prodigy by Rasmussen (Rasmussen 2003: 68), but seems more to be an omen that something was wrong with the expiation. Therefore it is not counted here. 206 Liv.28.22.1-7, Dio.17.57-66 Temple of Jupiter struck by lightning Tarracina Temple of Mater Matuta struck by lightning Satricum Two snakes crawled through the door to the temple of Jupiter Satricum Ears of grain appeared to be bloody Antium Pig with two heads was born Caere Androgynous lamb born Caere Two suns seen seen Alba Light appeared during the night Fregellae Ox spoke Ager Romanus Alter of Neptune sweated blood Roma 246
Temple of Ceres struck by lightning Roma Temple of Salus struck by lightning Roma Temple of Quirinus struck by lightning Roma Note: That the fire in the temple of Vesta went out is taken as a prodigy by Rasmussen (Rasmussen 2003: 71), but it seems like a case of ritual neglect, which is different. 205 Liv.29.104-8 Frequent rain of stones Note: The Mater Idaea is imported to Rome from Pessinus on account of a sibylline verse. It might have been done in response to a prodigy, but we do not know of any particular prodigy to which it was connected. Rasmussen has collapsed 2005 and 2004 into one, so she has 8 prodigies for this year. 204 Liv.29.14. Two suns seen Daylight in the middle of the night A meteor was seen move from the east to the west Gate is struck by lightning Tarracina Gate and wall struck by lightning* Anagnia Noise and a rumble was heard in the temple of Juno Sospita Lanuvium Note: Rasmussen counts this as two. 203 Liv.30.2.9-13 Ravens ate from the gold on the Capitol Roma Mice nibble on a golden wreath Antium Capua cowered by a swarm of locusts Capua Five-footed foal was born Reate Fire in the sky and then a meteor was seen Anagnia The sun expanded Frusinone The earth collapses into a cavity Arpinum Note: One of the consuls didn’t find a head on the liver in his sacrifice. Rasmussen sees this as a prodigy (Rasmussen 2003: 72). This is a bad omen toward the consul not a prodigy toward the state. 202 Liv.30.38.8-10 The disk of the sun diminishes Cumae 247
