Lartia (gens)
The ''gens Lartia'', sometimes spelled ''Larcia'' or ''Largia'', was a patrician family at Rome, distinguished at the beginning of the Republic through two of its members, Titus Lartius, the first dictator, and Spurius Lartius, the companion of Horatius on the wooden bridge. The name soon after disappears entirely from the annals. A family by this name existed in the early Empire, but its relationship to the Lartii of the early Republic is unknown.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕
==Origin of the gens==
The Lartii were of Etruscan origin, as their name clearly shows. The ''nomen Lartius'' is a patronymic surname, based on the Etruscan ''praenomen Lars''. This name, meaning "lord", is usually spelled ''Larth'' in Etruscan inscriptions, but Latin writers also used ''Lars'' in place of the Etruscan praenomina ''Laris'' and ''Larce'', apparently distinct names in Etruscan. The nomen is always spelled ''Lartius'' in Livius, while Dionysius alternates between Λάρκιος, ''Larcius'' and Λάργιος, ''Largius''. All three forms appear on Latin inscriptions. However, as the nomen is derived from ''Larth'' or ''Lars'', the normal Latin form should be ''Lartius''.〔''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology'', William Smith, Editor.〕〔George Davis Chase, "The Origin of Roman Praenomina", in ''Harvard Studies in Classical Philology'', vol. VIII (1897).〕
