The Temple of Concord

|
According to legend the Temple of Concord was built to celebrate the end of the political conflict between the Patricians and Plebeians by Camillus in 367 BC. More recently Lucius Manlius, Praetor in 218, has been identified as the builder. It was rebuilt in 121 BC by Lucius Opimius at the end of the political upheaval of the Gracchi. The picture above shows the remains of the temple in the foreground, just in front of the Temple of Vespasian and Titus. As you can see, from this angle it looks like little more than a grassy pile of bricks, though you can get some idea of its shape.
