FORUM SUARIUM

FORUM SUARIUM
the pork market of Rome during the empire, mentioned
first in two inscriptions of about 200 A.D. (CIL vi. 3728=31046, 9631),
and then in documents of later date (Not. Reg. VII; Pol. Silv. 545;
Cod. Theodosianus xiv. 4. 4. 4; Philostr. Her. 283 Kays. ii. 129. 12 (Teubner).
). This market
was near the barracks of the cohortes urbanae in the northern part of
the campus Martius, probably close to the present Propaganda, and its
administration was in the hands of the prefect or of one of his officers
(CIL vi. I 156a; Not. dignit. occ. iv. 10; Digest. i. 12. I. II). See HJ452;
BC 1895, 48-9; DE iii. 207; and cf. CAMPUS PECUARIUS.

OBELISCUS HORTORUM SALLUSTIANORUM

OBELISCUS HORTORUM SALLUSTIANORUM
now standing in the Piazza
della Trinita dei Monti. This obelisk was brought to Rome some time
after the period of Augustus (Amm. Marcell. xvii. 4. 16) and erected in
the gardens of Sallust, where it was still standing in the eighth century
(Eins. 2. 7; Jord. ii. 344, 649). It is 13 metres high, and on its surface
is a copy made in Rome, probably about 200 A.D., of the hieroglyphics
of the obelisk of Rameses II that Augustus set up in the circus Maximus
(BC 1897, 216-223=Ob. Eg. 140-147). In the fifteenth century it was
lying on the ground, broken into two pieces, near its base (Anon. Magl. 17,
ap. Urlichs 159; LS i. 234) and remained there until the eighteenth
century (LD 171, who reproduces a drawing by Carlo Fontana (Windsor
9314) dated 21st March, 1706, and lettered 'scoprimento della Guglia,
etc.') Cf. also Kircher, Oedipus Aegyptiacus, iii. 256-257, and plate (dated 1654) reissued
in Rom. Coll. S.J. Musaeum, Amsterdam, 1678.
