Excerpt from The Remains of Ancient Rome, Vol. 1 The present work is a revised and greatly enlarged version in two volumes of the former one-volume books entitled Ancient Rome in 1885 and in 1888. A great part has been rewritten, accounts of the recent discoveries have been added, and a large number of new illustrations have been introduced. I have to thank Mr. John Murray for kindly supplying cliches of the cuts of the Colosseum and the Circus of Maxentius, and for allowing me to reprint part of the description of the Circus Maximus which I originally wrote for the new edition of Smith's Dictionary of Antiquities. I also have to thank Messrs. Swan Sonnenschein and Co. for the use of their cuts of the Pantheon, the Theatre of Marcelluis, the Arch of Constantine, and the Coin of the Gens Scribonia. The Council of the Society of Antiquaries have been good enough to supply the cuts taken from Ligorio's Bodleian manuscript. Unhappily the growth of the modern city, which has recently progressed with extraordinary rapidity, has led to the obliteration of many interesting features in the topography of the ancient city, and the destruction of a large proportion of its natural beauties.
