[edit] Merge

I've copy-pasted some material from Cuma which belongs into this article but still needs to be integrated. See html commented text in article. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:47, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Removed again - seems to have been copyvio from Encarta ([1]). Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:54, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Problem with Google Earth placemarker which references this article: The placemarker is actually centered over an ancient amphitheatre (possibly one of the oldest in Campania) next door to the Villa Vergiliana. The Cumae which the article refers to is actually to the north of this placemarker, on an acropolis.

This article is awful - there are so many mistakes and misunderstandings. Starting from the "sanctuary of the Sibyl" - it has been reinterpreted as part of the strategic system of the town! Anyways, I'm the head of the Cumae group in our Archaeology Dept. Project - Greek Colonization. We're going there in a couple of weeks, and I've read all the books that have to do with this city. I'll write a full, in-depth article this summer, after exams!--Keltica 19:56, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
