Cicero, Pro A. Cluentio 194: … ate et religione et iustis precibus deorum mentis, non contaminata superstitione neque ad scelus perficiendum caesis hostiis posse placari. cuius ego furorem atque crudelitatem deos immortalis a suis aris atque templis asperna …

Curtius Rufus, Historiarum Alexandri Magni 8.10.8: Caesis quippe silvis flammam excitaverunt, quae lignis alita oppidanorum sepulcra conprehendit. Vetusta cedro erant facta conceptumque ignem late fudere, donec omnia solo aequata sunt.
