VENUS HORTORUM SALLUSTIANORUM, AEDES
a temple in the
HORTI
SALLUSTIANI (q.v.) which is mentioned in three inscriptions (
CIL vi. 122,
32451, 32468:
ex hortis Sail.). It is probable that this is only a late
name for the temple of
VENUS ERUCINA (q.v.) which lay within the limits
of these gardens (HJ 416; WR 289), but the attempts to identify it
with any ruins that have been found have proved unsuccessful (
BC 1888, 3-11;
1914, 397;
Mitt. 1889, 270-274;
1892, 313; M61. 1891, 167-170).
