Where it is used

Caesar, De Bello Gallico 7.73.2: Qua re ad haec rursus opera addendum Caesar putavit, quo minore numero militum munitiones defendi possent. Itaque truncis arborum aut admodum firmis ramis abscisis atque horum delibratis ac praeacutis cacuminibus perpetuae fossae quinos pedes altae ducebantur.

Cicero, On Oratory 3.182: … pune progredi licet duo dumtaxat pedes aut paulo plus, ne plane in versum aut similitudinem versus incidamus. Altae sunt geminae, quibus. Hi tres heroi pedes in principia continuandorum verborum satis decore cadunt.
