Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, CIRCUS MAXIMUS (search)
t after the carceres the next permanent part of the circus to be constructed was the spina (see below), and that on it were placed those statues of which we have record, one of Pollentia (Liv. xxxix. 7. 8 (189 B.C.): malus in circo instabilis in signum Pollentiae procidit atque id deiecit), and others (Liv. xl. 2. I: signa alia in circo maximo cum columnis quibus superstabant evertit). It is also possible that the arch of Stertinius (see FORNIX STERTINII) with its gilded statues, erected in 196 B.C. (Liv. xxxiii. 27. 4), may have stood in the line of the spina, but the temple of IUVENTAS (q.v.) of 191 (Liv. xxxvi. 36. 5) was on one side. A permanent spina presupposes the covering over of the stream, which flowed through the circus. This came from the valley between the Caelian and Esquiline, passing through the (marshy ?) depression which later on Nero converted into the stagnum of the domus Aurea and then traversed the valley between the Caelian and Palatine. It was converted into
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, FAUNUS, AEDES (search)
FAUNUS, AEDES So far as is known the only temple of Faunus in Rome, situated at the north end of the island in the Tiber (Ovid. Fast. ii. 193-194:Idibus agrestis fumant altaria Fauni / Hic ubi discretas insula rumpit Aquas). It was vowed in 196 B.C. by the aediles Cn. Domitius Ahenobarbus and C. Scribonius Curio, who built it out of fines collected from three pecuarii who had been convicted of cheating (Liv. xxxiii. 42. 10). Two years later it was dedicated by Domitius (Liv. xxxiv. 53. 4) on the Ides of February (Ovid. loc. cit. Hemerol. Esq. ad Id. Feb., CIL i². p. 210=vi. 2302 ; Fast. Ant. ap. NS 1921, 87). Vitruvius cites it as an example of a prostyle temple (iii. 2.3). It was built on the island probably because of the non-urban character of the god. There are no references to it later than those of the calendar, and no traces have been found (HJ 637; Jordan in comment. in honor. Mommsen 359; and esp. Besnier, 290-303 and literature cited).
Samuel Ball Platner, Thomas Ashby, A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome, FORNIX STERTINII (search)
FORNIX STERTINII an arch erected in the circus Maximus by L. Stertinius in 196 B.C., from spoils brought from Spain, at the same time with two other similar arches in the forum Boarium (Liv. xxxiii. 27. 4). These arches were surmounted by gilded statues.

FORNICES STERTINII two arches erected by L. Stertinius in 196 B.C. in the forum Boarium, in front of the temples of Fortuna and Mater Matuta, on which were gilded statues (Liv. xxxiii. 27. 4), See BC 1924, 197; Mitt. 1925, 334-338, 349-350.

aid to have lived on this site (Plut. Rom. 20; Solin. i. 21). The temple was dedicated on 1st June (Ov. Fast. vi. 183; Macrob. i. 12. 30; Hemer. Venus. ad Kal. Iun.; Fast. Ant. ap. NS 1921, 97, which also mentions a festival on ioth October 1 Mancini conjectures that a primitive altar in her honour was dedicated on ist June. and the temple on ioth October. (cf. CIL is. p. 331). In it were kept the libri lintei (Liv. iv. 7. 12, 20. 8), and it is mentioned in connection with the prodigia for 196 B.C. (Liv. xxxiii. 26. 8:ad Monetam duarum hastarum spicula arserant). It is altogether probable that this temple of Camillus replaced an earlier cult centre of luno Moneta, to which reference is made by Plutarch (Cam. 27), when speaking of the sacred geese that were kept around her temple in 390 B.C. Various explanations were given by the Roman antiquarians of the epithet Moneta. Cicero (de Div. i. 101) says that it was derived from the warning voice of the goddess, heard in the temple on the o

mple in the forum Boarium (Liv. xxxiii. 27. 4; Ov. Fast. vi. 477-479), just inside the porta Carmentalis (Liv. xxv. 7. 6), ascribed by tradition to Servius Tullius (Liv. v. 19. 6; Ov. Fast. vi. 480), restored and dedicated by Camillus in 395 B.C. (Liv. v. 19. 6, 23. 7; Plut. Cam. 5); it was burned in 213 (Liv. xxiv. 47. 15), and restored the next year by triumvirs appointed for the purpose, together with the temple of Fortuna (Liv. xxv. 7. 6; for a possible later restoration, see below). In 196 B.C. two arches (fornices) with gilded statues were set up by L. Stertinius in front of the temples of Mater Matuta and Fortuna (Liv. xxxiii. 27. 4), and if, as is probable, these arches were part of a colonnade surrounding them both, the temples must have been near together and perhaps had the same orientation. In the temple of Matuta Ti. Sempronius Gracchus placed a bronze tablet Urlichs, Malerei vor Caesar, interprets 'tabula' as 'picture,' and probably rightly. There is no word of its being
