Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, NEPTUNUS, ARA (search)
NEPTUNUS, ARA an altar of Neptune in circo Flaminio, the sweating of which is mentioned by Livy (xxviii. I . 4) among the prodigia of 206 B.C. The same prodigium, however, is related by Cassius Dio (fr. lvii. 60) in words that imply a real temple (I(drw=ti pollw=| ai(/ te qu/rai tou= *poseidwni/ou kai\ o( bwmo\s e)rru/h), and it is probable that such a temple did exist at that time (see below).

21. 9) is regarded as fictitious, but in any case the temple was one of the oldest in Rome (Plin. NH xv. 120: inter antiquissima delubra habetur Quirini). Whether it stood on the site of an earlier ara (see above) cannot be determined. In front of it grew two myrtle trees, called patricia and plebeia, of which the former flourished as long as the senate retained its power unimpaired, but withered away during the Social war, while the other became healthy and vigorous (Plin. loc. cit.). In 206 B.C. the temple was struck by lightning (Liv. xxviii. II. 4), and again in 49 when it was much injured if not almost destroyed (Cass. Dio xli. 14. 3). It must have been repaired almost at once, for the senate erected in it in 45 a statue to Caesar as the *qeo\s a)ni/khtos (Cass. Dio xliii. 45. 3). A final restoration was completed by Augustus in 16 B.C. (Mon. Anc. iv. 5; vi. 32; Cass. Dio liv. 19. 4). The day of dedication of the original temple was not 29th June, the later date (Ov. Fast. vi.

The day of dedication was 5th August (Fast. Vall. Amit. Ant. Philoc. ad Non. Aug., CIL i². p. 240, 244, 248, 270, 324; Men. Rust. ib. 281; Fast. Ant. ap. NS 1921, 105; Cic. ad Att. iv. I. 4; pro Sest. 131). It was struck by lightning in 276 and 206 B.C. (Oros. iv. 4. I; Liv. xxviii. II. 4; cf. also Obseq. 12, 43 These prodigies chronicled by Obsequens belong respectively to 166 B.C. (lightning), and 104 B.C. (a swarm of bees). ), and burned in the reign of Claudius (Plin. NH xxxv. 19), but afteanding in the fourth century (Not. Reg. VI). In it was a statue of Cato, set up by the senate in his honour (Plut. Cat. mai. 19:nao\s th=s (*ygiei/as). The temple of Bubulcus was decorated with frescoes which, in spite of the injuries of 276 and 206 B.C., were preserved until the building was burned in the time of Claudius (Plin. loc. cit.). These frescoes were said to have been painted by a member of the gens Fabia, a C. Fabius who signed his name to his work, and won for himself and his family
