 The only other notices of the spot which occur in history are some casual mentions of prodigies that occurred there; but Strabo tells that it was still much frequented in his time, and that many persons came thither to see the miracle of the priests and votaries of the goddess passing unharmed through a fire and over burning cinders.This superstition is ascribed by other writers to the temple of Apollo, on the summit of Mount Soracte.It was probably transferred from thence to the more celebrated sanctuary at its foot.
