SALINAE

warehouses for the salt that was brought up the Tiber in boats and carried inland by the via Salaria-probably the earliest kind of traffic between Rome and the sea coast. They were situated on and adjacent to the site of the porta Trigemina (Solin. i. 8; Frontinus, i. 5; Liv. xxiv. 47. 15), probably outside this gate after it was built (cf. Plaut. Capt. go; BC 1888, 84-91 pass.; RE i. A. 2078).
