Fucinus (Italy) (search for this): book 7, commline 759
Angitia, not Anguitia is the spelling of this name attested by inscriptions and the best MSS. The spelling Anguitia probably arose from a supposed connexion of the name with anguis: it is more probably connected with ancus. The chief seat of the worship of this goddess was the shore of the lake Fucinus: but inscriptions Angitiis, Angitiae, Dis . . . Ancitibus, have been found elsewhere. (Preller, Römische Mythologie. p. 362.) She was said to be a daughter of Aeetes, sister or niece of Circe and sister of Medea, who taught the Marsians the use of drugs. Comp. the connexion of Circe with Italy v. 10 above.
