VICUS MATERIARIUS

a street somewhere in Region XIII (CIL vi. 975). It evidently took its name from lumber yards or carpenters' shops,1 and was probably in the warehouse district between the Aventine and the Tiber (cf. however, HJ 170).

1 Compare inter lignarios, Liv. xxxv. 41. io (Eranos, 1923, 42. 43).
