VICUS AESCULETI
a street which must have entered or passed through
the
AESCULETUM
(q.v.). It is known only from the occurrence of the
name in the inscription (
CIL vi. 30957) on an altar dedicated by the
magistri vici Aescleti to the Lares, which was found in the via Arenula
about 100 metres north of the Tiber (
NS 1888, 498;
BC 1888, 327-339;
2889, 69-72;
Mitt. 1889, 265-267; HJ 521-522). Fragments of pavement have been found in the Via di S. Bartolommeo, and the vicus may
have run in that direction.
