VENUS FELIX, AEDES

the existence of this temple is indicated by an inscription found in the Villa Altieri (CIL vi. 781 =30831, a dedication to Venus Felix; cf. ibid. 782, Veneri Felici sacrum Sallustia Helpidus d(onum) d(edit), which may point to the site of the temple having been near the Horti Sallustiani; and see also 8710: P. Aelius Aug. lib. Epaphus aedituus Veneris Felicis). This temple may possibly have been built by Sulla (WR 291), but nothing is known of it.
