Among the Fragments were the Leg of _Justinian_, which exceeded my Height, and his Nose, which was above nine Inches long. I dared not publickly measure the Horse’s Legs, as they lay upon the Ground, but privately measured one of the Hoofs, and found it to be nine Inches in Height. _Suidas_, and some modern Historians allure us, that it was called the _Forum Augustæum_, because the _Curatores_, and _Sebastophori_, on the fifteenth Day of _October_, used to dance in the Market Place there, in Honour of _Augustus_; or because the Statues of _Constantine_, and his Mother _Helena_, were set up in an arched Gallery which stood here. _Zosimus_, a more antient Historian than _Procopius_, asserts, that _Constantine_ built a round Market, with four _Portico_’s, two in a Row, above each other; and that he roofed two of them with _Proconnesian_ Marble, that you might pass from them unto the Portico of _Severus_, and from thence beyond the Bounds of the antient City; and adds, that this Market stood in a Place, to which there was a Passage thro’ a Landgate adjacent. This is the same Market which is intended by the _unknown Author_ of the _History of Constantinople_, where he tells us, that _Constantine_ built a Market in a circular Manner. The same Author tells us in another Place, that when he was at _Constantinople_, _Constantine_ had surrounded the great _Forum_ with four _Portico_’s and placed at both Ends of one of them, which you ascend by many Steps, two Statues: At one End was placed the Statue of _Rhea_, the Mother of the Gods, (the same Statue, which those who sailed with _Jason_, placed on Mount _Dindymus_) rising above the City of _Cyzicus_. They tell you, that for her Neglect in paying divine Worship to the Gods, the Statue was defaced; and that her Hands, which before held the Reins of two Lyons which stood before her, were changed into a petitioning Posture. This Statue at the same Time faced and adorned the City. At the other End of the _Portico_ he placed the _Fortune_ of the City, though _Suidas_ relates, that the _Fortune_ of the City stood in a Nich of the _Miliarium_. If this Statue was set up here by _Constantine_, I should think, that both the Markets mentioned by _Zosimus_ are one and the same. But to me they seem to be different; because _Zosimus_ tells us in one Place, that _Constantine_ built a Market with two _Portico’s_ round it, and afterwards, that he built a Market with four _Portico_’s round it; unless he reckons in the Account, the _Portico’s_ of _Severus_ and _Constantine_, from whence there was a free Entrance into other _Portico’s_. On the East Side of the _Forum Augusteum_, _Procopius_ writes, that _Justinian_ built a large Court, where the Senate used to assemble, and celebrate an Anniversary Festival every new Year. Before the Senate-House stand six Columns, two of which support the Western Wall, in the Middle of it. The other four stand at a little Distance from it. These Pillars
