Caieta In Roman mythology, Caieta was the wet-nurse of Aeneas. The Roman poet Vergil locates her grave on bay at Gaeta, to which she also gives her name (''cf.'' Caietae Portus).〔Vergil ''Aeneid'' 7.1-4〕 The poet Ovid, working a generation later, provides an epitaph: ::HIC • ME • CAIETAM • NOTAE • PIETATIS • ALVMNUS ::EREPTAM • ARGOLICO • QVO • DEBVIT • IGNE • CREMAVIT〔Ovid ''Metamorphoses'' 14.443-444〕 "Here me, Caieta, snatched from Grecian flames, my pious son consumed with fitting fire."〔Ovid, ''Metamorphoses'', trans. Frank Justus Miller, Loeb Classical Library 43 (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1984), 331.〕 The fourth-century commentator Servius writes that there was some controversy about whose wet-nurse Caieta was: in addition to Aeneas, he offers Creusa and Ascanius as possibilities.〔Servius ''In Vergili Aeneidem Commentarii'' 7.1〕 ==References==
