L. FABIUS CILO, DOMUS
presented by Septimius Severus to Cilo, his intimate
friend and praefectus urbi in 203 A.D. (Viet. Ep. 20. 6;
Pros. ii. 45. 20).
It is mentioned in the Regionary Catalogue in
Region XII, and on an
inseribed lead pipe (
CIL xv. 7447) found near S. Balbina, on the
Aventine (Bull. d.
Inst. 1859, 164;
NS 1884, 223;
BC 1916, 198).
Considerable remains of substructions, of an earlier date, however, still
exist on the way up to and under the monastery, while the church itself
was formed out of a rectangular hall of the house (Mon.
L. i. 490).
A fragment (43, cf. 58) of the Marble Plan may also indicate this
house (LR 543; HJ 88 ;
RE vi. 1767 ; ZA 279-280); Kirsch, Rem.
Titelkirehen, 94-96).
