CLIVUS PUBLICIUS
(search)
CLIVUS PUBLICIUS
a street constructed and paved by Lucius and Marcus
Publicius Malleolus, who were curule aediles about 238 B.C. (Fest. 238;
Varro, LL v. 158; Ov. Fast. v. 293-4). It began in the forum Boarium,
near the west end of the circus Maximus and the porta Trigemina
(Frontin. 5; Liv. xxvii. 37), and must have extended across the Aventine
in a southerly direction (Liv. xxvi. 10), past the temple of Diana to the
VICUS PISCINAE PUBLICAE (q.v.). It was said to have been burned
to the ground in 203 B.C. (Liv. xxx. 26), which must mean that it was
thickly built up.

FLORA, AEDES
(search)
FLORA, AEDES
a temple of Flora, built by the aediles Lucius and Marcus
Publicius, in 240 So Veil. i. 14. 8 (acc. to CIL and HJ 118; WR makes it 24) ; Plin. NH xviii. 286
is the authority for the later date. The date of foundation is given as 28th April by
Fast. Praen. (while Fast. Allif. (13th Aug.) refers to a restoration; see CIL i². p. 325) and
the Floralia lasted from that date till 3rd May.
or 238 B.C. (cf. BM. Rep. i. 469, n. 3); restored by
Augustus, in part at least, and dedicated by Tiberius in 17 A.D. (Tac. Ann.
ii. 49 ); and probably again restored in the fourth century by the younger
Symniachus (Anth. Lat. iv. 112-114). It stood on the slope of the
Aventine at the west end of the circus Maximus (Fast. Allif. ad Id. Aug.;
cf. CIL xv. 7172), probably on the CLIVUS PUBLICIUS (q.v.), which was
built by the same aediles (HJ 118; RE vi. 2748; Merlin 95, 30; cf.
AD TO(N)SORES).
