GENS IULIA, ARA
an altar on the Capitoline, presumably A diploma published in JRS 1926, 95-101, states that the original was ' fixa Romae in
Capitolio in basi Pompi[li regis ad] aram gentis Iuliae,' which makes this presumption a
certainty.

CAPITOLINA (q.v.). Copies of a number of the diplomata of honourably
discharged soldiers, belonging to the years after 71 A.D., state that the
originals were fastened to this altar (CIL iii. pp. 847-851, Suppl. pp. 1958,
1959, 2034; DE i. 604 ; Jord. i. 2. 56), and it is no doubt this altar that is
referred to in a fragment of the Acta Fratrum Arvalium of uncertain
date (CIL vi. 2035, 1. 4).

PAX, TEMPLUM
* (aedes, Vict.;*ei)rh/nhs new/s, Procop.; *ei)rhnai=on, Cass. Dio

the temple of Peace
which was begun by Vespasian after the capture of Jerusalem in 71 A.D.,
and dedicated in 75 (Suet. Vesp. 9; Joseph. b. Iud. vii. 5. 7 (158) ; Cass.
Dio lxv. 15. ; Aur. Vict. Caes. 9. 7; Ep. 9. 8). It stood in the middle of
the forum Pacis, north of the basilica Aemilia (Mart. i. 2. 8), probably
at the junction of the modern Vie Alessandrina and dei Pozzi. Statius
seems to ascribe the completion of this temple to Domitian (Silv. iv. 3. 17;
cf. iv. I. 13), but this emperor's claim may have had little foundation
(cf. Suet. Dom. 5). Within the temple, or attached closely to it, was a
library, bibliotheca Pacis (Gell. v. 21. 9; xvi. 8. 2; Boyd, 16-17, 36-37).
In it were placed many of the treasures brought by Vespasian from
Jerusalem, as well as famous works of Greek artists (Joseph. b. Iud.
vii. 5. 7; Plin. NH xii. 94; xxxiv. 84; xxxv
