Arcus de Tosectis : the name given to a marble arch in the Anon. Magi.,
which may possibly be the Arcus Novus of Diocletian (q.v.) (HJ 470 ;
Jord. ii. 416 ; AJA 1904, 34 ; PBS iii. 253, 269-271).
Arcus ad Tres Fasciclas, Tripolis or Trofoli : mediaeval names of the
Arco di Portogallo (Jord. ii. 416).
Arcus Traiani : see Forum Traiani.
Arcus Traiani : mentioned only in the Regionary Catalogue in Region I,
and probably represented on a coin (Cohen, Traian 547) struck
between 103 and 112 a.d. Here it has only a single passage way, but
has projections on each side that are covered with sculpture. Above
is the emperor in a six-horse chariot, with attendant figures. This arch
may perhaps be that which is just inside the porta S. Sebastiano, known
as the Arco di Druso (q.v.) (HJ 216).
Arcus Valentiniani : see Pons Aurelius.
Arcus Divi Veri : mentioned only in the Regionary Catalogue in Region I.
It probably stood on the via Appia, but nothing else is known about it
(see Arco di Druso). A relief in the Torlonia collection is attributed
to this arch, or at any rate to some monument of Lucius Verus, which
celebrated his Parthian triumphs ; or else to the same series as the reliefs
on the attic of the arch of Constantine (Reinach, Repertoire des Reliefs,
i. 249 ; MD iii. 3526 ; PBS iv. 250 ; Mon. Piot xvii. 227 ; SScR 253-257).
Arcus Vespasiani et Titi : see Arcus Titi.
Area Apollinis : mentioned only in the Regionary Catalogue in Region I.
Area Apollinis (in Palatio) : see Aedes Apollinis.
Area Calles. In the Notitia et Calles is added to the words aream
Apollinis et Splenis of both Notitia and Curiosum, in Region I, but the
reading is very doubtful (Jord. ii. 23, 542 ; BC 1914, 401).
Area Callisti : found only on a slave’s collar (CIL xv. 7193). It was
in the Transtiberine district, probably near the castra Ravennatium,
and the church of S. Maria in Trastevere (HJ 647).
Area Candidi : mentioned only in the Notitia, after Decem Tabernae
(q.v.), in Region VI. It was probably not far from the southern point
of the Viminal, perhaps in the neighbourhood of S. Pudenziana (HJ 374).
Area Capitolina : * the open space in front of and around the temple of
Jupiter Optimus Maximus on the south summit of the Capitoline (Suet.
Cal. 22, 34 ; Gell. ii. 10. 2 ; Sidon. Ep. i. 7. 8 ; Veil. ii. 3. 2 ; Liv. xxv.
3.14: area Capitolii), made by building retaining walls and substructures
round the edge of the hill and levelling off the surface enclosed. The
