STRENIA, SACELLUM

a shrine of the goddess quae faceret strenuum (August. iv. 16) in the Colosseum valley, mentioned only as the starting-point of the Sacra via (Varro, LL v. 47; Fest. 293). The lucus Streniae, mentioned only by Symmachus (Ep. x. 35; BC 1905, 210), probably adjoined the shrine, but the exact site cannot be determined (HJ 259; Rosch. ii. 227 ; Gilb. i. 217-218).
