Rome: plan of the Portico of Octavia (Lanciani)

The Portico of Octavia (Opera Octaviae) is shown in this late 19th century plan by Lanciani to lie between the Circus Flaminius at upper left, and the Theater of Marcellus at lower right. The Portico, close to the Tiber within the Jewish Quarter or Ghetto, became a Medieval fish market.
The Temples of Jupiter and Juno in the Portico of Octavia date from the Republic, as did the adjacent temple of Hercules. All these structures were gone by the 1561 rediscovery of the Forma Urbis map,which shows them as drawn by Lanciani.
