Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, CLEMENTIA CAESARIS, AEDES (search)
CLEMENTIA CAESARIS, AEDES * a temple erected in 44 B.C. to Clementia and Caesar, in which the two were represented holding each other by the right hand (Cass. Dio. xliv. 6: nao\n au)tw=| th=| *)epieikei/a au)tou=; App. BC ii. 106: koino\n (nao\n) au)tou= kai\ *)epieikei/as a)llh/lous decioume/nwn; Plut. Caes. 57: th=s *)epieikei/as i(ero/n). This temple is probably represented on a coin of Sepullius Macer as tetrastyle (Cohen, Caes. 44=Babelon ii. 29, No. 52=BM Rep. i. 549. 4176, 4177; cf. RE iv. 20; WR 278). Its site is not known.

CONCORDIA NOVA a temple voted by the senate in 44 B.C. in honour of Caesar (Cass. Dio xliv. 4: new/n te *(omonoi/as *kainh=s w(s kai\ di) au)tou= ei)rhnou=ntes oi)kodomh=sai e)/gnesan. It is not certain that it was ever built.

the corners of the Comitium, being removed (Plin. xxxiv. 26; cf. Dio xl. 49). In 52 B.C. it was burnt down by the partisans of Clodius and rebuilt by Sulla's son Faustus (Cic. pro Mil. 90, and Ascon. in loc. ; Pp. 29, 40, ed. Kiessling and Schoell. Dio, loc. cit.; Cic. de fin. v. 2 (written in 45 B.C.): Curiam nostram, Hostiliam dico, non hanc novam, quae minor mihi videtur postquam est maior, must also refer to this curia, and not to that of the elder Sulla, as Richter, 94, thinks). In 44 B.C. it was decided to build a new curia (Dio xliv. 5: e)peidh\ to\ *osti/lion kai/per a)noikodomhqe\n kaqh|re/qh). Part of its site was occupied by the temple of FELICITAS (q.v.). The curia was, like the comitium, inaugurated as a templum (Varro ap. Gell. xiv. 7. 7). According to what we know of the republican buildings which surrounded the comitium, the curia Hostilia should have faced due south (HC pl. iii.), and its position in regard to other monuments is given by Plin. NH vii. 212 (midday
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, CURIA IULIA (search)
CURIA IULIA * the new senate house begun by Julius Caesar in 44 B.C. just before his assassination and continued by the triumvirs (Cass. Dio xliv. 5; xlv. 17 ; xlvii. 19). It was completed and dedicated in 29 B.C. by Augustus (Mon. Anc. iv. 1: curiam et continens ei chalcidicum feci; vi. 13; Suet. Calig. 60; Cass. Dio li. 22). Like its predecessor, the curia Hostilia, and the curia Pompeia, it was inaugurated as a templum (Varro ap. Gell. xiv. 7. 7). See also CIL vi. 877a (=32324), 1718, 32326 (Act. Lud. Saec. Sever. i. 5); s.c. de Mytilenaeis in Berl. Sitzber. 1889, 966. Augustus set up in it a statue of Victory (Dio li. 22 ; v. VICTORIA, ARA) and built an annex called the CHALCIDICUM (q.v.). The Secretarium Senatus, another annex of the senate house, probably also formed part of the structure of Augustus, though we have no direct evidence of its existence before the time of Diocletian. The curia Iulia, like the older curia, was built in comitio (Plin. NH xxxv. 27, 131); in fact
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, FELICITAS (vao\s *eu)tuxi/as） (search)
FELICITAS (vao\s *eu)tuxi/as） a temple planned by Caesar in 44 B.C., just before his assassination, and built by M. Aemilius Lepidus on part of the site previously occupied by the CURIA HOSTILIA (q.v.) of Faustus Sulla (Cass. Dio xliv. 5. 2). Nothing whatever is known of the later history of this temple (WR 266; RE vi. 2164; Rosch. i. 1473; Jord i. 2. 253; DE iii. 43-44)
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, HORTI CAESARIS (2) (search)
HORTI CAESARIS (2) the gardens of Julius Caesar, on the right bank of the Tiber (Hor. Sat. i. 9. 18). Their exact limits are unknown, but they extended from a point near the porta Portuensis southwards along the via Portuensis, and contained the temple of FORS FORTUNA (q.v.), which was one mile from the gate (Tac. Ann. ii. 41; Plut. Brut. 20; HJ 643; RE iii. 1297). Caesar entertained Cleopatra in these gardens in 44 B.C. (Cic. ad Att. xv. 5. 2), and left them by will to the Roman people (Cic. Phil. ii. 009; Suet. Caes. 83; Appian, BC ii. 143; Cass. Dio xliv. 35). For remains of works of art and buildings found within the area of these gardens, cf. Ann. d. Inst. 1860, 415-450; BC 1884, 25-30; 1887, 90-95; Mitt. 1890, 149; 1892, 331; PT 181.

killed Viridomarus, the Insubrian king (Liv. Ep. 20; Serv. Aen. vi. 859; Prop. iv. 10. 45; Plut. Marc. 8; Rom. 16). This temple was probably within the later limits of the area Capitolina, and was said to have been enlarged by Ancus (Liv. i. 33. 8: amplificata), but was very small, for according to Dionysius (ii. 34) it measured not more than 15 feet on the longest sides. A denarius (Babelon, Claudia II; BM.Rep. i. 567, 4206-8) struck by P. Cornelius Lentulus Marcellinus (RE iv. 1390) about 44 B.C., represents Marcellus, the conqueror of Viridomarus and Syracuse, standing on the high stylobate of a rectangular tetrastyle temple with the spolia opima in his hand. The columns support an entablature with plain pediment. This undoubtedly represents the actual structure before Augustus, but it had been sadly neglected and had even lost its roof. At the suggestion of Atticus, Augustus restored it, probably about 31 B.C. (Nep. Att. 20. 3:ex quo accidit, cum aedes Iovis Feretri in Capitolio a

son of the same name, who was appointed duumvir for the purpose (Liv. xl. 34. 4; Val. Max. ii. 5. I; cf. Cic. de leg. ii. 28). Mancini conjectures that a fragmentary entry: .. .]tati in Fast. Ant. (ap. NS 1921, 117), under 13th November, should be referred to this temple. It contained a gilded statue of the elder Glabrio, the first of its kind in Rome (locc. citt.). This temple stood at the east end of the area afterwards occupied by the theatre of Marcellus, and was destroyed by Caesar in 44 B.C. when he began preparations for the erection of that building (Plin. NH vii. 12, who is mistaken in his date of the building of the temple; Cass. Dio xliii. 49. 3 ; cf. Delbrueck, Die Drei Tempel am Forum Holitorium in Rom, Rome 1903, 6, for an erroneous theory). Cf., however, Hellenistische Bauten ii. 43, where he accepts the conclusions of Wissowa in Gett. Gel. Anz. 1904, 560, 561. With this temple was afterwards connected the Greek story of the daughter who supported her imprisoned fath

cture be dedicated as a temple and not as a theatre (Tert. de spect. 0o; Tiro ap. Gell. x. I. 7, where the temple is called aedes Victoriae for Veneris Victricis; cf. Mommsen, CIL i. p. 323). The dedication took place in Pompeius' second consulship in 55 B.C. (Plin. NH viii. 20), but the inscription was not put in place until 52 (Gell. loc. cit.). The day of dedication was 12th August (Fast. Allif. Amit. ad prid. Id. Aug., CIL i². p. 217, 244, 324), when Honos et Virtus and Felicitas were joined with Venus, indicating that shrines of these deities stood near that of Venus (cf. Suet. Claud. 21: ludos dedicationis Pom- peiani theatri ... cum prius apud superiores aedes supplicaverat). The temple is mentioned on an inscription (vi. 785), It was found among the remains of the theatre near S. Maria di Grottapinta. and in the third century (Porphyr. ad Hor. Sat. i. 2. 94; HJ 525-526; Gilb. iii. 323; WR 291). For coins of about 44 B.C., depicting the goddess, see BM. Rep. i. pp. 543- 551.
