BIBLIOTHECA PORTICUS OCTAVIAE

BIBLIOTHECA PORTICUS OCTAVIAE
established by
Octavia after the death
of Marcellus in 23 B.C. (Plut. Marc. 30; Ov. Trist. iii. 1.
69) in the
porticus Octaviae (Boyd 8-10, 33-34). It was arranged by
C. Melissus,
a freedman of Maecenas (Suet. de gramm. 21), and
divided into two
sections, one for Greek and one for Latin books (CIL vi.
2347-9,2347=4431; 2349=5192. 4431-5,
5192). Library and books were burned in 80 A.D. (Cass.
Dio lxvi. 24),
but the books were probably replaced in the new building
(Suet. Dom. 20).
For the history of the building, and its parts, see
PORTICUS OCTAVIAE.

Suet. Otho 6; Vitell. 15 cum (Vitellius) ... incendium (on the Capitol)
eTiberiana prospiceret domo inter epulas; Plut. Galba 24), and must
have been destroyed, not in the fire of Nero, but in that of 80 A.D.
(Suet. Tit. 8; I-ieron. a. Abr. 2096), for we are told that Vespasian o)li/ga e)n tw=| *palati/w| w)/|kei Cass. Dio lxv. io. 4. Josephus speaks of ta\ a)/nw basilei=a (B. Jud. vii. 5. 4).
(which, if this palace, as well as the domus
Transitoria, had been destroyed, he could not have done at all),
and, as the construction and the brickstamps show, have been
rebuilt under Domitian. Remains of an earlier house, in opus
reticulatum, may be seen on the north side of the hill facing the
Capitol, in
