Temple of Victory-Where


The Temple of Victory was a temple on the Palatine Hill. It was just to the east of the Temple of the Magna Mater (Great Mother). Remains of the foundation of the temple have been found. It was begun by General L. Postumius Megellus. He built it using his share of the booty after the war with the Samnites in 307 BC. It was finished in 294 BC, but rebuilt in the first century BC. The festival day was August 1.
