The Temple of Saturn and the Temple of Vespasian, Roman Forum, Rome. Between the temples is the Clivus Capitolinus, the Roman road going from the Forum to the Capitol. The Temple of Saturn (in latin Latin: Templum Saturni or Aedes Saturnus) was first built in 497 BCE. It was also called the Aerarium because the Roman reserves of gold and silver were kept there. The only surviving part of the temple is the Ionic portico were one can read "The Senate and People of Rome restored what fire had consumed". This inscription dates from the 4th century CE when it was last reconstructed after a fire. The Temple of Vespasian (templum divi Vespasiani) built in 79-81 CE, was dedicated to Emperor Titus and Emperor Vespasian by his brother, Domitian.
