Lenate?

[edit]

The [Latin] plural is Laenates which translations sometimes render as Lenate; I don't find any evidence of this - if this means translations of Polybius into Italian, it may be true - although Lenate sing., Lenati pl. would be expected; but either way, it is of very limited interest to this English Wikipedia.. All the instances of Laenate I can find are Latin ablative singulars; those of Lenate are OCR failures for Senate. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 23:23, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Etruscan origin?

[edit]

This name is of Etruscan origin? Really? Not Latin Publius, not the Samnite equivalent of Coquillius, but Etruscan? Who says so? Septentrionalis PMAnderson 11:47, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

More in Livy

[edit]

Particularly in Book XLII where the Senate ordered him to undertake a 10 year vow similar to the imperial decennalias. — LlywelynII 17:25, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
