An altar at the angle of the street near the exca-
vation of Queen Caroline, marked (a) on the great plan
of the city.
The intention of these altars has been alluded to
page 136 and 226. The prayer on making an offering
may be seen in Plautus.—' Quebso te, ut des pacem,
salutem, et salutatem nostras familiar.'—Mercator, i. 4—
12.
Virgil is uncertain whether the snake was the
'geniumne loci, famulumne parentis.'—JEneid, v. 95.

A shop, of which the counter is seen in shape of the
letter L. In this were sunk and fixed large jars, to hold
the materials for sale. In front of the counter, the
shutters were slipped in a groove, and the closed door,
fitted to the edge of the last, and, when fastened,
kept all secure. The door was hung on pivots, and of
course opened to the left.
