Remains possibly found by Andrea Carandini??

Image of Temple from "History of Rome and of the Roman People"

[edit]

Thanks so much for putting this here, I am thrilled to have discovered this work and its voluminous images of antiquity that I intend to put to good use improving some articles in the CGR project's watchlist.

But alas, after a brief investigation, I have determined that it is most certainly not an image of the Temple of Jupitor Stator (8th Century BC) (see http://www.1902encyclopedia.com/R/ROM/rome-25.html. It is with heavy heart that I will be removing it from the article. Informata ob Iniquitatum (talk) 02:50, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Title of article

[edit]

Since there is no evidence that any temple existed on the site before the 3rd century BC, I believe the article would be better entitled "Temple of Jupiter Stator (3rd century BC)". The attribution of the temple's foundation to Romulus is clearly a myth, and even Livy, who records the tradition, says that no temple was built on the spot until the time of Atilius Regulus.
