Fowler, W. Warde (William Warde)
This was the dedication-day of a temple of the great Lanuvian goddess, Juno Sospita, in the Forum olitorium[1343]. It was vowed in the year 197 B.C. by the consul Cornelius Cethegus, but had fallen into decay in Ovid’s time[1344]. For the famous cult of this deity at Lanuvium, see Roscher, in Lex. s. v. Iuno, 595.
