Citations missing date January 2007 The Aqua Julia or Aqua Iulia is a Rome Roman aqueduct built in 33 BC by Agrippa . It was repaired and expanded by Augustus from 11 BC 11 &ndash 4 BC . The springs of the Aqua Iulia are situated approximately a half mile north of the abbey of Grottaferrata . Frontinus stated that the springs were two miles to the right of the twelfth mile of the via Latina . The length of the Aqua Iulia was reported as 15,426 1 2 paces. The water supply was estimated to be 1206 quinaria e, or 50,043 cubic metres during a 24 hour period. Several cippus cippi are known, all dated from the time of Augustus. No. 302 has been found near the springs, and 281 not far south of the abbey others 157, 156, 154, 153 have come to light at Capannelle near the seventh mile of the via Latina, before the channel begins to run above ground upon the arches of the Aqua Marcia . The aforementioned group has been dated back to the 14&ndash 11 BC restoration. However, another cippus has been located, north of the abbey, bearing the number 2. It dates from 14 BC , and is, it is presumed, the result of another restoration by Augustus , of which there is no record. The Aqua Iulia flows above the Aqua Tepula, upon the arches of the Aqua Marcia . The main channel leads to its terminal castellum. In addition to this, some arches still remain in the Piazza Guglielmo Pepe, which suggests that a branch ran to the Nymphaeum Alexandri . The identification of this branch as being part of the Aqua Iulia is dependent on the specus that runs upon it being only 0.289m below the bottom of the specus of the aqueduct at Porta Maggiore , which is at 63.739 m above sea level. However, in Livellazione cited under Anio Novus , the level of the bottom of the Aqua Iulia is located just outside Porta Maggiore , and its height is given as 57.38 above sea level. If this is accurate, the branch must have originated from the Aqua Claudia or the Anio Novus . Frontinus states that, prior to the constru ... more details
The Puteal Scribonianum Scribonian Puteal or Puteal Libonis Puteal of Libo was a structure in the Forum Romanum in Ancient Rome . A puteal was a classical wellhead , round or sometimes square, placed atop a well opening to keep people from falling in. The Scribonian Puteal was dedicated or restored by Lucius Scribonius Libo a member of the Libo family , perhaps the praetor of 204 BC, or the tribune of the people in 149 BC. The praetor s tribunal was convened nearby, having been removed from the comitium in the 2nd century BC. It thus became a place where litigants, money lenders and business people congregated. According to ancient sources, ref Horace , Sat. ii.6.35, Epp. i.19.8 Cicero , Pro Sestio , 8 ref the Scribonian Puteal was a bidental that is, a spot which had been struck by lightning . It took its name from its resemblance to the stone curb or low enclosure around a well puteus that was between the Temple of Castor and Pollux and the Temple of Vesta , near the Porticus Julia and the Arcus Fabiorum arch of the Fabii . No remains of this puteal, however, have been discovered. It was once thought that an irregular circle of travertine blocks found near the Temple of Castor formed part of the puteal, but this idea was abandoned in the early 20th century. A coin issued in 62 BC by Lucius Scribonius Libo Roman consul consul 34 BC depicts this puteal, which he had renovated. It resembles a cippus sepulchral monument or an Glossary of ancient Roman religion ara altar , with laurel wreath s, two lyre s and a pair of blacksmith pincers or tongs below the wreaths. The tongs may be those of Vulcan god Vulcan , emblematic of him as a forger of lightning. ref C. Hulsen, The Roman Forum Eng. trans. by J. B.

Infobox Painting image file Et in Arcadia ego.jpg title Et in Arcadia ego artist Guercino year 1618 1622 type Oil on canvas height 81 width 91 city Rome museum Galleria Nazionale d Arte Antica Et in Arcadia ego also known as The Arcadian Shepherds is a painting by the Italian Baroque artist Giovanni Francesco Barbieri Guercino , from c. 1618 1622. It is now on display in the Galleria Nazionale d Arte Antica of Rome . The painting shows two young shepherds staring at a skull, with a mouse and a blowfly, placed onto a cippus with the words Et in Arcadia ego I too was in Arcadia . The latter is a moral reference to Death . The phrase appears for the first time in art and architecture in this work. The iconography of the memento mori theme symbolised in art by the skull was rather popular in Rome and Venice since Renaissance times. Elias L. Rivers suggested the phrase Et In Arcadia Ego is derived from a line from Daphnis funeral in Virgil s Fifth Eclogues Eclogue Daphnis ego in silvis Daphnis was I amid the woods , and that it referred to the dead shepherd within the tomb, rather than Death itself. ref Elias L.

The Pons Agrippae Bridge of Agrippa was an Roman bridge ancient bridge across the River Tiber in Rome . It was located 160 metres above the Ponte Sisto , and is known from an inscribed Glossary of architecture C cippus set up by the curatores riparum during the Principate of the Emperor Claudius , suggesting it was built during or before the reign of Claudius. It was restored in 147 AD. The bridge is named after Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa , a close friend of the Emperor Augustus . Agrippa married Julia the Elder Julia , the daughter of Augustus, and the couple lived in a villa on the opposite bank of the River Tiber. To connect his villa to the Field of Mars , where Agrippa had built several important monuments, it has been suggested that Agrippa constructed the Pons Agrippae. ref name livius The remains of four piers from the bridge were discovered in 1887 these are still somewhat visible on the right bank, but are mostly under water. ref Samuel Ball Platner as completed and revised by Thomas Ashby http penelope.uchicago.edu Thayer E Gazetteer Places Europe Italy Lazio Roma Rome Texts PLATOP Pons Agrippae.html A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome , London Oxford University Press , 1929 pg 398 ref These piers are misaligned with the modern current. ref Taylor, Rabun http books.google.co.uk books?id rqMGZr4yAkQC&pg PA131&lpg PA131&dq Pons Agrippae&source bl&ots Z3CH3NHs0w&sig qWWLJ8oUgUUcmFi6kq7Qme QgSo&hl en&ei dsVKTM68BIWUjAeql7HYDA&sa X&oi book result&ct result&resnum 7&ved 0CDAQ6AEwBg v onepage&q Pons 20Agrippae&f false Public Needs and Private Pleasures Water Distribution, the Tiber River and the Urban Development of Ancient Rome , L Erma di Bretschneider, Rome 2000 pg 131 Google Books ref The Pons Agrippae survived into the Middle Ages , connecting the area of the Palazzo Farnese with the Villa Farnesina , supposedly built on the site of Agrippa s villa.

Geographically, the Ager Romanus Italian Agro Romano is the name given to the immense rural area part plains, part hilly around the city of Rome . Politically and historically, it has represented the area of influence of Rome s municipal government. It is delimited to the south by Monti Prenestini , by the Alban hills and the Pontine Marshes pianura pontina to the west by the Tyrrhenian Sea to the north by the hills surrounding Lake Bracciano and to the east by the Monti Tiburtini . History Ancient Rome The Rome of Romulus at his immediate successors possessed a very restricted territory, as did the other neighbouring Latium Latin cities such as Praeneste and this territory was delimited by boundary stones, or cippus cippi , delimiting the area of influence of a city or a private citizen. The legend holds that a question of confines and of expanding beyond them led to Tullus Hostilius declaring war on Alba Longa , destroying this Latin city and incorporating its territory in that of Rome, around 635 BC . With the proclamation of the Roman Republic in 510 BC , all the territory occupied by Romans in Latium vetus came to be proclaimed ager publicus , equivalent to state lands today, which were held by the state and could be granted to private citizens. The Roman municipal authorities of this era were the consul s. In effect, Rome was a gigantic city territory continuously expanding across Europe. Augustus Octavian Augustus founded the office of praefectus urbis and other offices which divided the administration of the city of Rome from that of the Roman Empire. Thus was solved the problem of delimiting the territory of the municipium of Rome from the territory of the rest of the empire besides the Regio I Latii et Campaniae administered by a specific governor, the confines of the municipal authority of Rome came to be fixed at the centesimum lapidem ie one hundred miles on each of the Category Roman roads in Italy via consularis converging on Rome.

The pomerium or pomoerium Latin , from post moerium murum , wall , was the sacred boundary of the city of Rome . In legal terms, Rome existed only within the pomerium everything beyond it was simply territory Glossary of ancient Roman religion ager ager belonging to Rome. Location and extensions Tradition maintained that it was the original line ploughed by Romulus around the walls of the original city, and that it was inaugurated by Servius Tullius . Livy writes that the pomerium was in fact an area of ground both on the inner and outer sides of the walls. He says that the pomerium was a tradition from Etruria , and that the Etruscans consecrated the area by augur augury which in part had the purpose of preventing houses from being built on the inside of the wall although he writes that in his time houses were in fact built against the wall and to keep the area on the outer side free from human occupation. He also writes that it was not lawful to inhabit or to farm the area of the pomerium. ref Livy , Ab urbe condita book Ab urbe condita , 1.44 ref It did not follow the line of the Servian walls , although it remained unchanged until the Dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla , in a demonstration of his absolute power, expanded it in 80 BC . Several white cippi stones commissioned by Claudius have been found in situ and several have been found away from their original location. These stones mark the boundaries and relative dimensions of the pomerium extension by Claudius . This extension is recorded in Gaius Cornelius Tacitus Tacitus . Aulus Gellius also reports extensions by Caesar Augustus , Nero , and Trajan , but no other written or archaeological evidence supports this.
