176 AD (search for this): entry iuppiter-heliopolitanus-templum
TANUS, TEMPLUM This sanctuary was erected on the Janiculum, on the site of the LUCUS FURRINAE (q.v.), probably in the latter half of the first century A.D. Scanty traces of it have been found. More considerable remains of an edifice erected in 176 A.D. were also discovered, but only about one quarter of it has been cleared. It consisted, like the first, of an open square temenos, oriented on the points of the compass, and divided into four equal compartments by two transverse lines of amphorae (IG xiv. 1512; CIL vi. 32316), where he is mentioned as ki/stiber and asdei/pnois krei/vas polla\ met) eu)frosu/nhs. A slab (mensa) with a dedication to Iuppiter Heliopolitanus pro salute et reditu, et Victoria of Marcus Aurelius and Commodus (176 A.D., contemporary with the Antonine column and recording the same victories) erected by the same Gaionas, was found used as building material in the fourth century temple, as well as another undated dedication.

ormed, in part, of rows of amphorae which had, as it appears, some unknown ritual significance. Two small rooms (one with arrangements for ritual washing) were also found. Below was a large fishpond. Interesting objects were found in a boundary ditch, which soon served as a favissa. The date is given by the inscriptions. Besides the two cited s.v. LUCUS FURRINAE, there is another altar (of uncertain provenance) dedicated to Iuppiter Heliopolitanus and the Emperor Commodus on 29th November, 186 A.D., by one M. Antonius Gaionas, who is calledCistiber Augustorum (?), i.e. quinque vir cis Tiberim (CIL vi. 420=30764; cf. Mitt. 1907, 244). He also erected an altar found at Porto (CIL xiv. 24） I.O.M. Angelo Heliopolitano pro salute Imperatorum Antonini et Commodi. This Gaionas was already known from his sepulchral inscription (IG xiv. 1512; CIL vi. 32316), where he is mentioned as ki/stiber and asdei/pnois krei/vas polla\ met) eu)frosu/nhs.

And, agreeably to this, one of the recently discovered inscriptions speaks of him as deipnokri/ths ; see Cumont in CRA 1917, 275-284, who interprets the difficult text desmo\s o(/pws kratero/s qu=ma qeoi=s pare/xoi, o(\n dh\ *gaiwna=s deipnokri/ths e)/qeto, which is carved on a marble slab (with a hole in the centre communicating with a cavity which extends behind the whole slab), by supposing that the slab was placed vertically at the end o
