| 説明 | The building was probably dedicated to the goddess Feronia, whose cult - which originateed in the Sabine region - was introduced to Rome after the consul Manius Curius Dentatus conquered the Sabines in 290 BC. According to another hypothesis, Gaius Lutatius Catulus, consul in 242 BC, consecrated it to Juturna, the deity of fountains. The original plan, dating back to the beginning of the 3rd Century BC, had four columns at the front and five on the sides (peripteral sine postico), an was set on a high podium in tuff opus quadratum, reached by a staircase of 20 steps. Later, a large raised platform was built in front of the temple, with a peperino rock altar in the centre, perfectly preserved below the subsequent building works, which bears a dedicatory inscription by Aulus Postumius Albinus. This can probably identified with the consul in 151 BC, who consecrated the Ara after the plague in 142 BC. A few decades later, at the end of the 2nd Century BC, Aulus Postumius' altar was destroyed when tuff paving was laid in the area in front of the temple. It was replaced by a new altar, probably covered with slabs, of which only the concrete core remains.Under Domitian, after the fire in AD 80, the cella was restored with brick-lined walls and a mosaic floor, while the original proportions of the building remained largely unchanged. The bases if the columns and a third altar, built on the new travertine floor paving which extended over the entire area, were also demolished during the excavation. |
