I had always suspected the geographical authorities did not know what they were talking about when they located the battlefield of Munda in the county of the Bastuli-Poeni, close to the modern Monda, some two leagues north of Marbella.

나는 지리학자들이 문다 전투터를 마르베야 북쪽으로 약 2리그 떨어진 현대의 몬다 근처 바스툴리-포에니 지역에 위치시켰을 때 무슨 말을 하는지 몰랐다고 항상 의심해 왔습니다.

According to my own surmise, founded on the text of the anonymous author of the Bellum Hispaniense, and on certain information culled from the excellent library owned by the Duke of Ossuna, I believed the site of the memorable struggle in which Caesar played double or quits, once and for all, with the champions of the Republic, should be sought in the neighbourhood of Montilla.

익명의 저자가 쓴 《스페인 전쟁》의 본문과 오수나 공작이 소유한 훌륭한 도서관에서 얻은 몇 가지 정보를 바탕으로 제가 추측한 바에 따르면, 카이사르가 공화국의 챔피언들과 한 번에 모든 것을 걸고 결투를 벌인 기억에 남을 만한 전투 장소는 몬틸라 근처에서 찾아야 한다고 생각했습니다.

Happening to be in Andalusia during the autumn of 1830, I made a somewhat lengthy excursion, with the object of clearing up certain doubts which still oppressed me.

1830년 가을에 안달루시아에 있었던 나는 여전히 나를 괴롭히던 몇 가지 의문을 해소하기 위해 다소 긴 여행을 했습니다.

A paper which I shall shortly publish will, I trust, remove any hesitation that may still exist in the minds of all honest archaeologists.

제가 곧 발표할 논문이 모든 정직한 고고학자들의 마음에 아직 남아 있는 망설임을 없애줄 것이라고 믿습니다.

But before that dissertation of mine finally settles the geographical problem on the solution of which the whole of learned Europe hangs, I desire to relate a little tale.

그러나 나의 논문이 마침내 유럽의 모든 학문이 달려 있는 지리적 문제를 해결하기 전에, 나는 작은 이야기를 하나 들려주고 싶습니다.

It will do no prejudice to the interesting question of the correct locality of Monda.

이것은 Monda의 정확한 위치에 대한 흥미로운 문제에 아무런 영향을 미치지 않을 것입니다.

I had hired a guide and a couple of horses at Cordova, and had started on my way with no luggage save a few shirts, and Caesar’s Commentaries.

나는 코르도바에서 안내인과 말 두 마리를 고용하여 몇 벌의 셔츠와 카이사르의 『주해』 외에는 짐 없이 길을 떠났습니다.

As I wandered, one day, across the higher lands of the Cachena plain, worn with fatigue, parched with thirst, scorched by a burning sun, cursing Caesar and Pompey’s sons alike, most heartily, my eye lighted, at some distance from the path I was following, on a little stretch of green sward dotted with reeds and rushes.

어느 날 내가 피로에 지치고 목이 마르고 뜨거운 태양에 그을려 카이사르와 폼페이의 아들들을 진심으로 저주하며 카케나 평원의 높은 지대를 헤매고 있을 때, 내가 가던 길에서 조금 떨어진 곳에 갈대와 골풀이 듬성듬성 나 있는 작은 푸른 풀밭이 눈에 들어왔다.
