To drive or turn in a circle, turn round (most freq. since the Aug. per.;

not in Cic. or Quint.): impera suovetaurilia circumagi,

Varr. L. L. 5, § 143 Müll.—Hence,

T. t., to manumit a slave by turning him round. since the slave, in such a case, was taken by his master with the right hand, and turned around in a circle (cf. vertigo, Casaub. Pers. 5, 75 sq., and Dict. of Antiq.);
