[90] Festus, _De Verb. Sig._ L. 13, writes: “There were two Octavian porticoes, the one built near the theatre of Marcellus by Octavia, the sister of Augustus, the other close to the theatre of Pompey, built by Cn. Octavius, son of Cnæus, who was curule aedile, prætor, consul (589) decemvir for the sacred rites, and celebrated a naval triumph for a victory over King Perseus. It was the latter which, after its destruction by fire, Cæsar Augustus rebuilt.” Its reconstruction was in 721. Cf. Dio, XLIX, 43, who, however, confounds this Octavian portico with the other built some years after in the name of Augustus’ sister, Octavia. [91] The Pulvinar was the place of honor from which the imperial family witnessed the games. Cf. Suet. _Aug._ 45; _Claud._ 4. This restoration followed the burning of the Circus Maximus in 723. Cf. Dio, L, 10. [92] A temple attributed to Romulus, in ruins in the time of Augustus, till restored by him on the suggestion of Atticus. Cf. Nepos, _Atticus_, 20; Livy, IV, 20. The temple was probably restored in 723. [93] Suetonius, _Aug._ 29, writes: “He dedicated the temple to Jupiter the Thunderer, in acknowledgment of his escape from a great danger in his Cantabrian expedition; when, as he was traveling by night, his litter was struck by lightning, which killed the slave who carried the torch before him.” This expedition was in 728-729, and the temple was dedicated Sept. 1, 732. Cf. Dio, LIV, 4; C. I. L. I, 400. [94] This was dedicated in 738, on the Quirinal. Cf. Dio, LIV, 19. [95] These three temples have more than an accidental collocation. Just as the Tarpeian mount and the Quirinal hill had their triple divinities, so had the Aventine. Cf. Varro (_De Lin._) V, 158. The temple of Juno is ascribed to the time of Camillus, and is said to have been built for the Veientines. The date of the other two is unknown, as is that of this restoration by Augustus. [96] Also of unknown origin, location and restoration, other than as mentioned here. [97] Dionysius, I, 68, describes the old temple, not the restoration by Augustus of which we have only this statement. [98] The original temple was dedicated in 563, in the Circus Maximus. Cf. Livy, XXXVI, 36. Burned in 738. Cf. Dio, LIV, 19. [99] The original temple was burned in 756. Cf. Val. Max. I, 8, 11; Dio, LV, 12; Suet. _Aug._ 57. [100] The Capitol means the temple of Jupiter Capitolinus.
