212 BC (search for this): entry atrium-libertatis
ATRIUM LIBERTATIS a building containing the offices of the censors, some at least of their records, and some of the laws on bronze tablets (Liv. xliii. 16; xlv. 15; Fest. 241 ; Serv. ad Aen. i. 726; Gran. Licin. 15). It is also said to have served as the place of detention of the Thurian hostages in 212 B.C. (Liv. xxv. 7. 12) and for the torture of the slaves during the trial of Milo (Cic. pro Mil. 59). It was restored in 194 B.C. (Liv. xxxiv. 44) and again with great magnificence by Asinius Pollio (Suet. Aug. 29), who established here the first public library in Rome (Isid. Orig. 6. 5; Ov. Trist. iii. 1. 72; v. BIBLIOTHECA ASINI POLLIONIS). It is not to be confused with the Aedes Libertatis on the Aventine, and probably not with the shrine or monument that is marked with the word Libertatis on the Marble Plan in the north apse of the basilica Ulpia (see FORUM TRAIANI, p. 242). Three inscriptions refer to this atrium in the first century A.D. (CIL 470, 472, 10025). The first runs t

ear the curia, not on the Capitol) under which the second inscription could very well have stood (Mitt. 1889, 240, 241). There is no other reference until the sixth century, when an inscription was set up in some part of the curia as follows (CIL vi. 1794): salvis domino nostro Augusto et gloriosissimo rege Theoderico Va... ex co, and its relation to that part of the curia that bore its name in the sixth century, are unknown. The earlier atrium was probably not on the site of the later curia, and it was probably destroyed or used for other purposes before the sixth century (FUR 28-32; Jord. i. 2. 460 ff.; BC 1889, 362; DE i. 760; Roscher ii. 2032-2033; Boxth century, are unknown.

Three inscriptions refer to this atrium in the first century A.D. (CIL 470, 472, 10025). The first runs thus: Senatus populusque Romanus Libertati (in large letters on a marble slab); and the second, Libertati ab. imp. Nerva Caesare Aug. anno ab urbe condita DCCCXXXVIII, XIIII K. Oct. restitutae S.P.Q.R. Hulsen supposes, very naturally, that the first inscription belonged to the dedicatory inscription of a shrine with the statue of Libertas (near the curia, not on the Capitol) under which the second inscription could very well have stood (Mitt. 1889
