'Tituli' is Latin for an inscription or a notice. All the texts set in this work are inscriptions, either carved in stone or scratched on metal, from pre-Imperial Roman times. Thus they are not literary texts but rather represent different facets of daily life in ancient Italy in the period between 600 and 100 BCE.
