2 On page 14 he suggests that the epigram of Lutatius Catulus proves that it was Roman custom to greet the sun every morning; but this is very doubtful in view of forte salutans, and of Tacit. Hist. 3, 24, orientem solem (ita in Suria mos est) tertiani salutavere.

3 The suggestion (pp. 49 ff.) that some Greek influences reached Italy through the Illyrians deserves special attention. The Dionysiac wave may have reached Italy and Greece Proper independently.
