AEDES TENSARUM
mentioned only in one inscription, a military diploma (CIL iii. p. 845 II.); but probably the same building is referred to in another (ib. p. 1963, XVI.:
post thesarium veterem). This was on the Capitol and served to house the chariots, tensae (Fest. 364), in which the statues of the gods were carried in processions (
Jord. i. 2. 52;
BC 1910, 49-52). Cf. also Suet. Vesp. 5
ut tensam Iovis optimi maximi e sacrario ... deduceret.
