Via Latina same style and technique. Via Latina The Via Latina (Latin for "Latin Road") was a Roman road of Italy, running southeast from Rome for about 200 kilometers. It led from the Porta Latina in the Aurelian walls of Rome to the pass of Mount Algidus; it was important in the early military history of Rome. It must have preceded the Via Appia as a route to Campania, in as much as the Latin colony at Cales was founded in 334 BC and must have been accessible from Rome by road, whereas the Via Appia was made only twenty-two years later.
Latin obscenity from the root "trityo-" ("third") and originally meant a third party. The two meanings of "testēs" open the door for puns such as the following from Martial (2.72): Or Cicero's "testīs ēgregiōs!"

The diminutive "testiculī" was entirely confined to the anatomical sense; it is used 33 times by the medical writer Celsus, but "testis" not at all. The satirists Persius and Juvenal also used the word "testiculī". Veterinary writers use both "testis" and "testiculus". In Catullus (63.5), the testicles are famously referred to as "pondera"
