Licinianus wrote that after the inhabitants of Faesulae attacked the veterans in the colony and reclaimed their land (see section above), "consuls were assigned an army and set off for Etruria, as the senate instructed." He also wrote: "Lepidus ...[missing text... into the mountains ...text... led back his army." He added: "when weapons were brought together and Catulus was not slower ...text... Where anyone seemed to be near him as he went beside the coast and the lake, he avoided the tops of the mountains." The mountains Licinianus referred to must have been in Etruria. It sounds like Catulus went to Etruria to pursue Lepidus. Exsuperantius also mentioned a battle which was fought in Etruria. Neither writers mentioned any battles near Rome.
