Cispia (gens)
The ''gens Cispia'' was a plebeian family at Rome. Although the ''gens'' was supposedly of great antiquity, the Cispii only achieved prominence toward the end of the Republic.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
==Origin of the gens==
The Cispii were probably of Hernician origin, and according to tradition came from Anagnia, a town of the Hernici, during the reign of Tullus Hostilius, the third King of Rome. A certain Cispius Laevus was said to have come to the defense of Rome while the king was engaged in the siege of Veii, and stationed his forces on one of the two summits of the Esquiline Hill. At the same time, a second force stationed itself on the other summit. These were led by a certain Oppius, who had come from Tusculum. The two peaks subsequently became known as the ''Cispius Mons'' and the ''Oppius Mons''. In Varro, the ''nomen'' is also written ''Cespeus''.〔Sextus Pompeius Festus, epitome of Marcus Verrius Flaccus, ''De Verborum Significatu, s.vv. Septimontio, Cispius Mons''.〕〔Marcus Terentius Varro, ''De Lingua Latina libri XXV'', v. 50, ed. Müller.〕〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
