Sanctuary in Ancient Rome on the Aventine
Sestertius of Marcus Aurelius from 172-173 CE
The temple was founded in 495 BC. It was one of the oldest temples in Rome. It is known to have still existed in the 3rd century. If in use into the 4th century, it would have been closed during the persecution of pagans in the late Roman Empire.
