Like
many of the surviving monuments in the Forum, the Temple of Antoninus
and Faustina owes its survival to the fact it was converted into a church.
The temple was built by Antoninus Pius to the memory of his wife Faustina,
though after Pius' death in AD 161 the senate dedicated the temple to
them both. |
