121 BC (search for this): entry fornix-fabianus
FORNIX FABIANUS FORNIX FABIORUM an honorary arch erected on or over the Sacra via at the east end of the forum by Q. Fabius Allobrogicus in 121 B.C. to commemorate his victory over the Allobroges (fornix: Cic. pro Plane. 17; de or. ii. 267; in Verr. i. 19; Schol. pp. 133, 393, 396; Orell.; arcus: Sen. dial. ii. I. 3; Schol. Pers. iv. 49; vit. Salonini I). This was the first arch of the kind in or near the forum, and was restored by the grandson of the builder in 56 B.C. (CIL i². 762=vi. 1303). Among the fragments discovered in 1540-46 (LS ii. 196), in 1882 (NS 1882, 222-6), and later, are the nine travertine voussoirs and the archivolt, which have hitherto been attributed to it. These really belong to the portico of the DOMUS AUREA (p. 168). It was therefore believed that the arch was single, 3.945 metres in diameter, and built of tufa and peperino with travertine facings (PAS ii. 28). Three inscriptions were also found (CIL i². p. 198 and p. 542, No. 763 =vi. 1304ab ; DE i. 649)
