<p>Double Temple to Honos and Virtus built <i>ex manubiis</i> by C. Marius in 101 B.C.; no archaeological remains are known, but Vitruvius describes it as a peristyle temple without a portico in the rear (3.2.5: <i>ad Mariana Honoris et Virtutis</i> [<i>sc</i>.<i>aedis</i>] <i>sine postico</i>. Richardson’s (1978) analysis of Festus (466-68) suggests that the temple was sited along the augural line from the *Arx (which paralleled the *Sacra Via) and he further proposes a site at the foot of the *Velia just E of the *Basilica Aemilia, based on a highly conjectural analysis of Cicero (<i>De or.</i> 2.266; Richardson 1992, 190; id. 1978, 242). More tenable is Coarelli’s observation, which is followed by Palombi, that the Festus passage — which claims the temple’s height was lowered to avoid blocking an augural sight-line — makes greater sense if the temple had been situated atop the Velia. Thus, Coarelli locates the temple in the vicinity of the Arch of Titus, in line with the Sacra Via, probably beneath the Temple of Venus and Roma. The Temple of Honos et Virtus is frequently associated with the <i>Mariana monumenta</i>, a war-trophy erected by C. Marius in connection with his *Forum residence in 98 B.C. (Plut., <i>Mar</i>. 32; cf. Vitr., <i>loc. cit.;</i> Coarelli, <i>LTUR</i>; Richardson 1978, 242-43), however, Platner–Ashby argue for caution in the association.</p>
