HORTI CAESARIS (1)

the gardens of Julius Caesar that were probably just outside the porta Collina. They are mentioned in the fourth century (Obseq. 71) under date of 17 B.C., and probably by Cassius Dio (xlii. 26. 3) under date of 47 B.C. They appear to have fallen into the possession of Sallust (Ps. Cic. resp. in Sail. 19), and may have formed part of the horti Sallustiani (HJ 430; RE viii. 2483).
