Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, IUNO SOSPITA, AEDES (1) (search)
IUNO SOSPITA, AEDES (1) (templum, Cicero): a temple vowed in 197 B.C. by the consul C. Cornelius Cethegus during the Insubrian war (Liv. xxxii. 30. 10), and dedicated in 194 Here it is referred to under the name Iuno Mlatuta: Sigonius reads 'sospitae.' Hiilsen says that it was dedicated four years later, i.e. in 93 : but the Latin is post quadrennium (AJP 1907, 328; WR cit. agrees). (Liv. xxxiv. 53. 3) on 1st February (Fast. Ant. ap. NS 1921, 86). It is said (Cic. de Div. i. 4. 99; Obseq. 75) that L. Julius, consul in 90 B.C., restored a temple of luno Sospita, in consequence of a dream of Caecilia, the daughter of Q. Caecilius Metellus Balearicus, and it is probable that it is this temple of Iuno Sospita in Rome that is meant rather than the more famous one at Lanuvium (HJ 509-510; Gilb. iii. 82, 430; WR 188; Rosch. ii. 596). It was in the forum Holitorium, and is generally identified with the smallest of the three temples (though Frank prefers the central one-TF 126-130) that li

ummani), which probably replaced an altar ascribed to Titus Tatius (Varro, LL v. 74). It was built during the war with Pyrrhus (Ov. Fast. vi. 731-732: reddita quisquis is est Summano templa feruntur/ tum cum Romanis Pyrrhe timendus eras), and the hypothesis is plausible that this was done because the terracotta figure of Summanus in the pediment of the temple of Jupiter Capitolinus was reported to have been struck by lightning and hurled into the Tiber (Cic. de div. i. 10; Liv. per. xiv.; Jord. i. 2. 14-15, 98-100). The temple of Summanus was itself struck by lightning in 197 B.C. (Liv. xxxii. 29. I). Its day of dedication was 20th June (Ov. loc. cit.; Fast. Esquil. Venus. Amit. ad xii Kal. Iul., CIL i². p. 211, 221, 243, 320). There is little doubt that it stood on the west side of the circus towards the Aventine. The temple of DIS PATER (q.v.), mentioned only in Not. (Reg. XI; om. Cur.), is perhaps to be identified with this temple of Summanus (HJ 119; WR 135; Rosch. iv. 1600-1601).
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, VOLCANUS, AEDES (search)
VOLCANUS, AEDES a temple in the campus Martius, built before 214 B.C. for in that year-and again in 197-it was struck by lightning (Liv. xxiv. 10. 9: aedem in campo Volcani; xxxi. 29. 1). Tradition ascribed it to Romulus himself (Plut. Rom. 27; q. Rom. 47). It was outside the walls of the city (Vitr. i. 7. I : (ut) Volcani vi e moenibus religionibus et sacrificiis evocata ab timore incendiorum aedificia videantur liberari; Plut. q. Rom. 47). Near it Verres had erected gilded equestrian statues presented to him by the aratores of Sicily (Cic. in Verr. ii. 150, 167). On 23rd August, the Volcanalia, sacrifice was offered to Vulcan (see VOLCANAL). The calendars differ, however, the Fasti Vallenses (ad Kal. Sept., CIL ia. p. 240) reading Volcano in circo Flaminio, while the Arvales (CIL i. p. 215; cf. vi. 32482) contain no indication of place unless Volcano is to be united with the following Nymphis in campo. (Nor is there any indication of place in Fast. Ant. ap. NS 1921, 109.) If thi
