LIBEL'LA. A level; employed by carpenters and masons for testing the evenness of flat surfaces. It consists of two sides joined at the top by a cross bar, over which a line and plummet descend, as a pendulum; so that when the instrument is placed upright upon any horizontal surface, if both legs do not stand upon the same level, the line and plummet incline from the centre, and show which part is too high or too low. (Lucret. iv. 517. Plin. H. N. vii. 57. Varro, R. R. i. 6. 6.) The example (Libella/1.1) is taken from a sepulchral bas-relief, on which it appears amongst various other tools used in the carpenter's trade.
2. A small silver coin of the Roman currency, containing the tenth part of a denarius and, consequently, equal in value to the as. Varro, L. L. v. 174. Cic. Ros. Com. 4.

LIBEL'LUS (βιβλίον). Diminutive of LIBER, a little book; but with this distinction, that the libellus, accurately speaking, was a book consisting of a few leaves of parchment or papyrus, written and bound together in pages, as our books are (Suet. Jul. 56. Cic. Or. i. 21. Hor. Sat. i. 10. 92.), as shown by the annexed example (Libellus/1.1), from a marble bas-relief.
2. Hence the word came to have a more extensive, though characteristic signification; being used to designate any paper or document containing an advertisement, announcement of a play or gladiatorial show, notice of sale, a legal notice, petition, or memorial, all of which were usually written on a single sheet, as in the annexed example (Libellus/2.1), which represents Roman citizens presenting memorials and petitions to M. Aurelius, from a bas-relief in the Capitol at Rome. Cic. Att. xvi. 16. Mart. viii. 31. Plaut. Curc. i. 3. 6. Cic. Phil. ii. 38.

LIBER (βίβλος). Literally, the fine bark or rind of the Egyptian papyrus, which was used for writing upon; whence it came to signify the work or MS. so written, which we call a book. (Plin. H. N. xiii. 21.) To form this, a sufficient number of strips were glued together into one long continuous sheet, which, for convenience in use, was made up into a cylindrical roll (volumen), so that the reader gradually undid it, as he went on, in the manner represented by the annexed example (Liber/1.1), from a Pompeian painting; hence the expressions pervolutare, volvere, evolvere librum, mean to read a work. Cic. Att. v. 12. Tusc. i. 11. Brut. 87.
2. When the work extended to any length, and was divided into seperate parts, it was usual to roll up the MS. containing each one of these parts into a separate volume; which was then called a book, in the same sense which we attach to the word when we say the twelve books of Virgil. Cic. Div. ii. 1.

LIBITI'NA. The goddess in whose temple all the apparatus and paraphernalia required for furnishing out a funeral were kept; whence the word is used in a more general sense for the funereal apparatus (Liv. xl. 19. xli. 21.); for the bier (lectus funebris) upon which a corpse was carried (Mart. x. 97. Plin. H. N. xxxvii. 11. § 2.); and for the trade of an undertaker (Val. Max. v. 2. 10.).

LIBRA'RII. A class of educated slaves who were employed by their masters in different occupations requiring a certain amount of literary acquirements and skill; such as transcribing and binding books, making extracts, writing letters, acting as librarians. Hence they were distinguished by an epithet denoting the particular service which each had to perform; as scriptor librarius, the transcriber or copyiist; a studiis, who made extracts, or performed the duties of secretary and co-adjutor in the studies or business of his employer; ab epistolis, who conducted his master's correspondence in the character of an amanuensis. Hor. A. P. 354. Cic. Agr. ii. 5. Att. iv. 4. Suet. Claud. 28. Cic. Fam. xvi. 21. Orelli, Inscript. 2437.

LIBRATO'RES. Professional persons, employed by the officers who had the superintendence of the public aqueducts, to make all the necessary surveys, ascertain the levels of different sources of water, and to regulate the size of the pipes which conveyed a supply of water from the reservoir (castellum) to the various establishments and houses of the city, in order that none might obtain more than their legal allowance; which was effected by calculating the quantity that would pass through a pipe of certain diameter in a given time. Plin. Ep. x. 70. 3. Frontin. Aq. 105.
2. In the army, soldiers who levelled and worked the machines from which missiles were discharged; like the engineers of modern warfare. Tac. Ann. ii. 20. xiii. 39.

LIBRA (σταθμός, τάλαντον). A balance, or pair of scales; of which a great many specimens, constructed in different ways, are preserved in the various cabinets of antiquities. The simplest kind consists of a mere beam (jugum), with a pair of scales (lances) at each end, and a ring or short chain placed in the centre of the beam, as a handle (ansa) to poise it by. In some cases the beam is furnished with a tongue or index (examen) working in an eye (agina), to mark the variation in weight, as is usual with the modern scales. And sometimes, as in the annexed example (Libra/1.1), from a Pompeian original, the beam is divided into fractional parts, in the same manner as a steel-yard (trutina), with a weight (aequipondium) attached to it, by which means the difference in weight between two objects is decided at once, without the necessity of having recourse to a number of fractional weights for the purpose.
2. Sine bilance libra. (Mart. Capell. xi. 180. p. 42.) A balance with only one scale, but having a fixed weight instead of a scale attached to the opposite end of the beam, as in the annexed example (Libra/2.1), from an original in the Granducal Cabinet at Florence. This was not used for measuring unequal quantities, but to test the just weight of a given quantity; and is supposed to have been employed at the mint, for estimating the proper weight of coinage, and by jewellers, money-dealers, &c.
3. A carpenter's or stone-mason's level, for which the diminutive, LIBELLA, is more usual.
4. (Aquaria). A geometrical instrument, employed in taking the levels of water. Vitruv. viii. 5. 1.
5. A counterpoise. (Plin. H. N. xvi. 65.) AEQUIPONDIUM.
6. A measure made of horn and divided by lines on the inside into twelve fractional parts; employed for measuring oil. Galen, Compos. Med. per gen. i. 17. vi. 8. Compare Hor. Sat. ii. 2. 61.

LI'BRIPENS. Before the introduction of stamped money, all sums were reckoned by the pound weight, and not by the number of pieces; whence the person who weighed out the amount to be given for any purchase was termed libripens, the weighman. (XII. Tab. ap. Gell. xv. 13. 4.) But the name was retained in after times, although the custom from which it arose had long fallen into disuse, to designate the person who reckoned up and distributed their pay to the soldiery, whom we might term the quarter-master of a regiment. Plin. H. N. xxxiii. 13.

LIBUR'NA or LIBUR'NICA, sc. Navis (λιβυρνίς). A vessel of war, constructed after a model invented by the Illyrian pirates, and introduced into the Roman navy after the battle of Actium. It was built sharp fore and aft, was worked with one or more banks of oars, according to the size, as well as sails, had the mast amid ship, and the levantine sail instead of the common square one. (Veg. Mil. v. 7. Lucan. iii. 691. Sil. Ital. xiii. 240. Scheffer, Mil. Nav. pp. 92. 191.) The smaller ones were used as tenders, but the larger were brought into line for action. Though the real build of these vessels is not positively authenticated, the annexed figure (Liburna/1.1), which appears upon medals, both of Claudius and Domitian, has sufficient affinity to the above description, collected from incidental passages, to be offered as a probable representation of one of the smaller class.

LICIATO'RIUM. The rod upon which a set of leashes (licia) were fastened in weaving (Vulg. 1. Kings, 17. 7.), similar in use and purpose to the heddles of our weavers.

LI'CIUM (μίτος). A leash employed in weaving, for the purpose of decussating the threads of the warp, so as to make an opening, technically called a "shed," for the shuttle to pass through. (Plin. H. N. viii. 74. xxviii. 12.) It consisted of a string with a loop at one end, through which a thread of the warp was passed, each thread through a separate leash; and the whole number were then fastened in alternate order upon two rods (liciatoria), as shown by the preceding woodcut; the first, third, and fifth to one, the second, fourth, and sixth to another; so that when the two rods were pulled apart, they drew every alternate thread of the warp across every other one in opposite directions, making at the same time an opening or shed between them, through which the cross-thread of the woof was conveyed. The process of putting on the leashes in the manner described is termed "entering" by our weavers, and by the Romans was described by the expressions, licia telae addere, or adnectere. Virg. Georg. i. 285. Tibull. i. 6. 79.
2. Hence any thread, string, or band: as the thread of a web; a string for tying or suspending any thing; a riband for the hair, an enchanted band, &c. Auson. Ep. 38. Ov. Fast. iii. 267. Prudent. in Sym. ii. 1104. Pet. Sat. 131. 4.

LICTOR (ῥαβδοῦχος). A lictor; a public officer attached to the service of certain Roman magistrates, whom he preceded whenever they went abroad; viz. twenty-four for a dictator, twelve for a consul, decemvir, or tribune with military power; six for a praetor, and one for a Vestal virgin. He carried the fasces elevated on his left shoulder, and a rod (virga) in the right hand, with which he removed any persons obstructing the way, and knocked the doors of those whom the magistrate visited. In the city he wore the toga, and carried the fasces without the axe (securis), as exhibited by the annexed figure (Lictor/1.1) from a bas-relief of the Vatican; but out of Rome he wore the military cloak (sagum or paludamentum), and had the axe attached to his fasces; as shown by the figure, p. 278.; which also exhibits the rod in the right hand.

LIGO (μάκελλα). A sort of hoe, with a long handle (Ov. Pont. i. 8. 59.), and blade curved rather inwards (incurvus, Stat. Theb. iii. 589.), the edge of which was notched into teeth (fracti dente ligonis, Columell. x. 88.). The annexed figure (Ligo/1.1) is from an engraved gem, on which it appears in the hands of Saturn, represented in the character of an agricultural serf; and, strictly speaking, when in this form it was designated by a name of its own (bidens, δίκελλα), the two-pronged hoe, which would lead us to infer that the regular ligo was furnished with more than two prongs. But it will serve to convey a general notion of the character of the instrument, and to illustrate the epithets applied to it in the passages cited above.

LIG'ULA or LIN'GULA. Diminutive of LINGUA; a little tongue, applied in the following characteristic senses: —
1. (γλῶσσα, γλωττίς). The mouth-piece of a pipe (tibia), which was inserted between the teeth, like that of a modern clarionet or flageolet. (Plin. H. N. xxvi. 56. Festus s. Lingula.) The example (Ligula/1.1) is from a bas-relief.
2. A kind of small spoon, possessing a certain resemblance to the human tongue, employed for eating sweetmeats (Cato, R. R. 84.), taking ointment out of a bottle, skimming certain dishes (Plin. H. N. xxi. 49.), and various other purposes for which its peculiar form adapted it. (Mart. viii. 33. Columell. ix. 15. 3.) The example (Ligula/2.1) is from an original of bronze, formerly belonging to the Italian antiquary Bellori.
3. A small tongue or leaf-shaped sword, like the Greek ξίφος, which the Roman soldiers also used in early times, before they had adopted the long straight Celtiberian glaive, gladius. (Aul. Gell. x. 25. 2. Varro, L. L. vii. 107.) The example (Ligula/3.1) is copied from the device on a votive bronze shield, found at Pompeii, formerly belonging to a gladiator of the class termed Retiarii, as the inscription testifies. The trident (fuscina) is likewise exhibited upon it: from which we may collect that the Retiarius made use of the ligula as well as the net and trident.
4. The lapelle or lappet on each side of a shoe (calceus), through which the strings (corrigiae) that tied it on the foot were passed; whence the expression demittere ligulas means, to leave the shoes untied. (Festus, s. v. Juv. v. 20. Schol. Vet. ad. l.) The example (Ligula/4.1) is from a Pompeian painting.
5. The wedge-like end of a lever (vectis) which is inserted under the weight to be raised (Vitruv. x. 3.), or into any cavity or fixture for the purpose of producing pressure, as with the press beam (prelum) of an oil or wine press. Cato, R. R. 18. and illustration s. TORCULAR, 1.
6. A tenon in carpentry; i. e. a projecting tongue cut out upon the edge of a board or end of a beam, to fit into a mortise or cavity of corresponding form in another timber. Columell. viii. 11.
