Horse-shoes and horse-shoeing : their origin, history, uses, and abuses . ons, and two passages in it give us an idea, not only of thefunctions and emoluments of the individual who minis-tered to the requirements of sick animals, but also affordsanother proof that the hoofs of solipedes were not shod.The mulomedicus who clipped the hair and trimmedthe hoofs, was to receive for each animal six denarii;and for currying and cleansing the head, twenty denarii.Had shoeing been known or practised, it must havebeen mentioned in such an edict as this. And herewe may notice, in connection with this hoof-paringamong the Romans, that Bonanni has given drawingsof two iron objects found at Rome, near the CastraPeregrina, which Montfauc^on ^ reproduces as ancientRoman instruments of farriery.

Vegetius recom-mends the employment of such instruments. Apsyrtus (a.d. 330—-340), a Greek of the Byzantineempire, and one of the most renowned veterinarians ofthis period, who was employed in the army of Constantinethe Great, says that those horses which have a small frogare swift of foot and valuable ; and those which have theirfrogs growing close and small were best for work.^ Lead-ing us to infer that those horses which had wide flat solesand prominent frog
