DES, DELUBRUM a temple of Neptune in circo Flaminio mentioned on an inscription of the Flavian period (CIL vi. 8423: Abascanti Aug. lib. aedituo aedis Neptuni quae est in circo Flaminio), and without doubt by Pliny (NH xxxvi. 26), who states that a famous group by Scopas of Neptune, Thetis, Achilles, the Nereids and Tritons, Phorcus and his crew, sea-monsters, etc., was in delubro Cn. Domitii in circo Flaminio. A coin of Cn. Domitius Ahenobarbus (RE v. 1331, No. 25), struck between 42 and 38 B.C. (Babelon, Monnaies i. 466, Domitia 20, BM. Rep. ii. 487. 93), represents a tetrastyle temple with the legend Nept. Cn. Domitius M. f. Imp. This indicates that the temple was vowed at least between 42 and 38, but it may not have been built before 32, when Domitius had been reconciled to Augustus and held the consulship. The group of Scopas he probably brought from Bithynia, his province. The day of dedication of this temple was Ist December (Fast. Amit. ad Kal. Dec., CIL i². p. 245, 335). To

Dec., CIL i². p. 245, 335). To this temple also have been held to belong the parts of a frieze that were preserved (though this is no proof of their provenance) in the Palazzo Santacroce and are now in Paris and Munich (cf. however MARTIS, ARA). In style and execution this frieze belongs to the second half of the first century B.C., and it evidently surrounded either an altar or, more probably, a pedestal, in the temple. This pedestal may well have been that on which Domitius placed the Scopas group. Part of the frieze represents a lustratio of the army of the period before Marius, and probably was a memorial of the victory of the great-grandfather of the builder of the temple, who was victorious over the Celts on the Isere in 121 and censor in 115 (for the discussion of these reliefs, and their bearing
