BASILICA IULIA AQUILIANA

mentioned by Vitruvius (v. I. 4) as occupying a long and narrow site, so that the chalcidica or porches were added at the ends. It has been conjectured that it was built in honour of Julius Caesar by C. Aquilius Gallus, the friend of Cicero. Its site is unknown (Jord. i. 2. 256; RE iii. 84; x. 8).
