| | The troops were thus distributed through the provinces: Fulvius received the two legions which Marcus Valerius Laevinus had in Sicily; Quintus Fabius, those which Caius Calpurnius had commanded in Etruria. | | | Aulus Hostilius had Sardinia, Caius Mamilius, Sicily, Lucius Porcius, Gaul. | | | The senate decreed the same with respect to Caius Aurunculeius, who, as praetor, had held the province of Sardinia with two legions, which it did in the case of Lucius Veturius, and the question of the continuation of his command was proposed to the people. |

| | It was said that they were fitting out 200 ships to menace the whole of the Italian, Sicilian and Sardinian coasts. | | | The legions with which P. Manlius Vulso had held Sardinia were placed under C. Aurunculeius and remained in the island. | | | The same order was made in the case of C. Aurunculeius, who had administered Sardinia as praetor; the fifty ships which P. Scipio was to send from Spain were assigned to him for the protection of his province. |

| | San Giovanni di Posada: Information From Answers.com |
| | In the immediate surroundings, it is supposed there was a temple in honour of Feronia, an Etruscan deity, goddess of the waters; this would prove the presence of Etruscans in his area at the time of Nuragici people. | | | A similar cult of Feronia is reported on Italian mainland at least in two places: in Fiano Romano (near Rome), and in Terracina, some 120 Kilimeters south of Rome. | | | Traffic was supposedly intense, Sardinia bearing the sobriquet: the granary of Rome. |

| | You have to fight, soldiers, with the men whom you defeated in the former war by land and sea, from whom you have exacted a war indemnity for the last twenty years, and from whom you wrested Sicily and Sardinia as the prizes of war. | | | They are not aiming at Sicily and Sardinia, which they lost after their defeats, nor the Spain which lies on this side the Ebro; their sole object is to drive the Romans away from their ancestral soil, from the land on which they were born. | | | Even if we were only going to recover Sicily and Sardinia, possessions which were wrested from our fathers, they would be prizes ample enough to satisfy us. |

| | This is known as the Second Triumvirate, though we must remember that the former arrangement, made by Cæsar, Pompey, and Crassus, was simply a private league without formal sanction of law. | | | When that powerful office had been obtained, he broke with the senate, and marched to the northward, ostensibly to conquer Antony and Lepidus, who were coming down with another great army. | | | At Feronia the passengers left the boat, washed their faces and hands, and crawled onward three miles up to the heights of Anxur, where Mæcenas and others joined the party. |

| | Etruria |
| | According to Pittau, the Tyrrhenians sojourned in Sardinia, being the Sardian (the people of the Nuraghes), for centuries, before to land in Etruria and become the Etrurians. | | | But it is not really known if there is a relationship between the two names, since Fufluna seems to be only the Etruscan (with *p>f) form of a pre-existing name. | | | In this case, it is likely that in Etruria they simply adopted the place-names they found, probably adapting them in their language. |

| | “They were the Pelasgians, a dolicomorphus Mediterranean Pre-Indoeuropean people, who attested their presence since the Upper-Paleolitic westward and eastward the Aegeo-Anatolian area….In Italy, we can find traces of these early populations basically in the North with the Ligures and in the central-southern part (including Sardinia) with the Sicules. | | | The cult of nature in the Italian peninsula, while testifying an immanent view of the divine, was embodied in innumerable female “goddesses” such as Marica, Feronia, Angizia, Kirke, Pasifae, Mestra, Agamede, Bona Dea, Hygieia, Diana, Flora and others. | | | Thus defined in the Introduction of her main book the frame of the geo-historical context of her research, Momolina Marconi in the following chapters supports through an accurate analysis the survival in the Roman pantheon of the most ancient images of the Goddess/God not belonging to the Greek-Indoeuropean layer. |

| | All the samples, except those from Sardinia, contained Leguminosae, Rhamnus, Rosaceae, Cruciferae [Brassicaceae] and Myrtaceae. | | | The first 3 species yield the most important unifloral honeys, but the pollen contents in these honeys were very variable, so a characteristic range which would serve to identify the botanical source cannot be proposed. | | | The HPLC method was applied to analysis of 49 samples of honey from a range of locations in N. Sardinia. |
