BONUS EVENTUS, TEMPLUM

BONUS EVENTUS, TEMPLUM
a temple of Bonus Eventus
to which there is
but one reference in literature (Amm. Marcell. xxix. 6. 19)
where it is
said that the PORTICUS BONI EVENTUS (q.v.) was built
near it in 374 A.D.
The temple probably stood just west of the thermae
Agrippae, and some
ancient peperino walls found on the site of the church of
S. Maria in
Monterone may belong to it (ASRSP 1887, 471; BC 1878, 212-213;
1891, 224-227; 1914, 387-388). The date of erection of
this temple is
unknown, but it may have been one of the buildings of
Agrippa (HJ
581; RE iii. 715; Rosch. i. 795-797).

PORTICUS BONI EVENTUS

PORTICUS BONI EVENTUS
either built or restored by a certain Claudius,
prefect of the city in 374 A.D. (Amm. Marcell. xxix. 6. 19), around the
temple of BONUS EVENTUS (q.v.). Five large capitals of white marble,
1.70 metre high, found between the present church of S. Maria in Monterone and the Teatro Valle, may belong to this porticus and thus mark its
position. This site was probably part of the area occupied earlier by the
stagnum and horti of Agrippa (HJ 581; Hulsen, Thermen des Agrippa
33, 43; BC 1891, 224-227; 1914, 388; LS iii. 127, 232).

Aca'cius
2. A Syrian by birth, lived in a monastery near Antioch, and, for his active defence of the Church against Arianism, was made Bishop of Berrhoea, A. D. 378, by St. Eusebius of Samosata. While a priest, he (with Paul, another priest) wrote to St. Epiphanius a letter, in consequence of which the latter composed his Panarium. (A. D. 374-6).
This letter is prefixed to the work. In A. D. 377-8, he was sent to Rome to confute Apollinaris before Pope St. Damasus.
He was present at the Oecumenical Council of Constantinople A. D. 381, and on the death of St. Meletius took part in Flavian's ordination to the See of Antioch, by whom he was afterwards sent to the Pope in order to heal the schism between the churches of the West and Antioch.
Afterwards, he took part in the persecution against St. Chrysostom (Socrates, Hist. Eccl. 6.18), and again compromised himself by ordaining as successor to Flavian, Porphyrius, a man unworthy of the episcopate.
He defended the heretic Nestorius again
Ae'rius
(*)Ae/rios), Heretic, the intimate friend of Eustathius of Sebaste in Armenia, A. D. 360, was living when St. Epiphanius wrote his Book against Heresies, A. D. 374-6.
After living together an ascetic life, Eustathius was raised to the episcopate, and by him Aerius was ordained priest and set over the Hospital (ptwxotrofei=on) of Pontus. (St. Epiph. ad v. Haer. 75.1.)
But nothing could allay the envy of Aerius at the elevation of his companion. Caresses and threats were in vain, and at last he left Eustathius, and publicly accused him of covetousness.
He assembled a troop of men and women, who with him professed the renunciation of all worldly goods (a)potaci/a). Denied entrance into the towns, they roamed about the fields, and lodged in the open air or in caves, exposed to the inclemency of the seasons. Aerius superadded to the irreligion of Arius the following errors : 1.
The denial of a difference of order between a bishop and a priest. 2.
The rejection of prayer and alms f
