PREFACE<br />
The passages in Ovid's Fasti which relate to the sacra Jdulia<br />
give rise to three problems, namely, the place of sacrifice, the sex<br />
of the victim, and the age of the victim. The scope of this thesis<br />
is confined to the first two problems. The third is so intimately<br />
related to a study of the iuvenci offered Jupiter on January 1,<br />
that it has seemed best to reserve it for a future article, in which<br />
the investigation will be directed as much to cattle Cl to sheep<br />
and will, therefore, involve a close study of other sacrihces besides<br />
the sacra I dulia.
