DIVUS MARCUS, TEMPLUM

a temple of Marcus Aurelius which probably stood just west of his column (q.v.), in the same relation to it as the temple of Trajan to his column. It was erected to the deified emperor by the senate (Hist. Aug. Marc. 18; Aur. Vict. Caes. 16; Ep. 16), and is mentioned only once afterwards (Not. Reg. IX; HJ 608; Gilb. iii. 128).
