Descrizione: [L'Annèe philologique] [Comment] In addition to the evidence adduced in the author's previous article (=> 70-75745), there is also the existence of the term aquariolus, a slave who supplied washing-water for prostitutes. Thus, Ap. Claudius' complaint about bringing « water for you to use it unchastely » might be read as « Did you think I was your aquariolus when I built the Aqua Appia ? ».
