vowed by Romulus when his army was fleeing before the Sabines, if
Jupiter would stay their flight; hence the name. "Romulus built a
temple to Jupiter near the Porta Mugonia" (Dionysius, ii. 30). It was
restored by Scipio, A.U.C. 459 (Livy, x. 37). It was in this temple
that Cicero made his first oration against Catiline (Plutarch). Cicero
says that here the goods of Pompey were offered for sale.
