AQUA SALLUSTIANA

the modern name of a stream (which now runs underground) which rose between the Quirinal and the Pincio in the district of the horti Sallustiani, crossed the via Lata near the Piazza Colonna, and then turned southward to the Pantheon, where, near the CAPRAE PALUS (HJ 473, 477), according to one view, it joined the PETRONIA AMNIS (q.v.) with which it has by some been identified (LA 227; BC 1894, 393).
