From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article is copied directly from "The Ruins and Excavations of Ancient Rome" by Rodolfo Lanciani; Houghton Mifflin, 1897 - the only online source is http://www.questia.com/PM.qst?a=o&d=97545903

The book is clearly out of copyright so this isn't a copyvio. But there may be database rights issues. The Questia site carries the following notice: "You are not permitted to copy any portion of our site for distribution to others other than in the normal course of your personal or academic research." andy 08:41, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

The book "The Ruins and Excavations of Ancient Rome" by Rodolfo Lanciani is available in full as PDF from Google Books. Other sources there may also be relevant. I'm no Roman Scholar, but I'm not a bad editor. I'll take a look at what's here and see if I can't organize it to fit standards better. Narasinha (talk) 12:58, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I've done some copy-editing on the article, cleaned up the intro paragraph, added sources, and wikified. I believe this should take care of the clean-up notices for the time being, so I'm removing all four from the article (Copyedit, Wikify, Unreferenced, context).
