“ Terni is the ancient Interamna ("inter amnes") , originally belonging to Umbria and founded, according to a local tradition, in the year 672 B.C. It early became a flourishing municipium, and it did not permanently suffer through being portioned out among his soldiers by Sulla. Its inhabitants had frequent litigations and disputes with their neighbours at Reate in connexion with the regulation of the Velinus, the waters of which are so strongly impregnated with carbonate of lime that by their deposits they tend to block up their own channel. ”
