	Antium - LoveToKnow 1911
		Anzio), an ancient Volscian city on the coast of Latium, about 33 m.
		The legends as to its foundation, and the accounts of its early relations with Rome, are untrustworthy; but Livy's account of wars between Antium and Rome, early in the 4th century B.C., may perhaps be accepted.
		At the end of the Republican period it became a resort of wealthy Romans, and the Julian and Claudian emperors frequently visited it; both Caligula and Nero were born there.

	Dix: "The remains of my books": Cicero's Library at Antium
		Cicero speaks explicitly of a bibliotheca at three of his residences, the villa at Tusculum, the house on the Palatine at Rome, and the house at Antium.
		Antium was also close to Troia, where Cicero was considering the purchase of a villa to replace his Tusculanum.
		Cicero asked Atticus to send two librarioli to Antium; these two slaves, Dionysius and Menophilus, were to be employed as glutinatores, "book-binders." Cicero mentions one task performed by the "book-binders": attaching small tags of papyrus or parchment (quos vos Graeci, ut opinor, sittubas appellatis) bearing the book title to the papyrus rolls.

	Titus Livius: The History of Rome, Book 3
		The colonists of Antium were also suspected, because on the capture of that town a large number of the inhabitants had taken refuge with the Aequi, and they were the most efficient soldiers throughout the war.
		Antium was the centre of the movement; the colonists of Antium were holding public meetings in Ecetra, the capital, and the main strength of the war.
		Whilst these events were occurring at Antium, the Aequi sent forward some of their best troops and by a sudden night attack captured the citadel of Tusculum; the rest of the army they halted not far from the walls, in order to distract the enemy.
