272 HORTI SCAPULANI—HORTI TORQUATIANI
hill, a nymphaeum in the north-east part, and three piscinae (Mel. 1891,
167-170 ; LS passim; Schreiber, Villa Ludovisi, passim; BC 1888,
3-11 ; 1902, 69 ; 1906, 159-185; Mitt. 1889, 270-274 ; 1892, 313; HJ
434-5 and literature cited ; Gilbert, iii. 376 and literature cited ; Homo,
Aurelien 241 ; LR 415-421 ; PT 78-108, 158-159). The only ruins now
visible are those of a nymphaeum at the end of the via Sallustiana,
with an adjacent four-story building (Middleton, ii. 243-5, Rivoira,
RA 96-99, who attributes it to the reign of Vespasian).
Horti Scapulani : somewhere on the right bank of the Tiber (Cic. ad Att.
xii. 37. 2, 38. 4, 40. 4, 41. 3, 52. 2 ; xiii. 12. 4, 33. 4).
Horti Scatoniani : known only from one inscription (CIL vi. 6281). Scato
was a cognomen of some of the Vettii, and these gardens may have had
some relation to the Domus Vettiorum (q.v.).
Horti Scipionis : gardens of Scipio Africanus, somewhere in the campus
Martius (Cic. de nat. deor. ii. 4. 11). They are perhaps the same as the
villa Scipionis (Cic. Phil. ii. 109).
Horti Senecae : gardens of the philosopher (Tac. Ann. xiv. 52, 53, 55), of
unknown location, but of considerable extent, for Juvenal calls them
‘ magnos Senecae praedivitis hortos ’ (x. 16).
Horti Serviliani : gardens that Avere probably in the southern part of
Region XII (Tac. Ann. xv. 55 ; Hist. iii. 38 ; Suet. Nero 47 ; CIL vi.
8673, 8674; Berl. Papyr. 511 ; see HJ 199, n. 42). They contained
some famous works of art (Plin. NH xxxvi. 23, 25, 36).
Horti Siliani : somewhere on the right bank of the Tiber (Cic. Att. xii.
22. 3, 25. 1, 26. 1, 27. 1, 30. 1, 31. 2,1 33. 1, 35. 1, 41. 3, 44· 2, 52. 2).
Horti Spei Veteris : gardens that are mentioned only once (Hist. Aug.
Elag. 13). They were on the Esquiline, near the temple of Spes Vetus
(q.v.), but are otherwise unknown (cf., however, LR 397-400 ; HJ 364 ;
LS iii. 163-4; Homo, Aurelien 250; Mel. 1899, 125; NS 1922, 137).
Horti Tauriani : gardens of M. Statilius Taurus, consul in 44 a.d., who
was forced to commit suicide in 53 by Agrippina because she coveted
them (Tac. Ann. xii. 59). They were on the Esquiline adjacent to the
horti Calyclani (CIL vi. 29771 ; cf. Horti Calyclani and Forum Tauri).
Horti Terentii : the gardens of the poet Terence, on the via Appia, near
the temple of Mars, of twenty iugera in extent (Suet. Terent. 5).
Horti Thraseae Paeti : mentioned only once (Tac. Ann. xvi. 34), of
unknown location.
Horti Torquatiani : gardens on the Esquiline, of unknown ownership.
They are mentioned only once (Frontin. de aq. i. 5), where the junction of
the aqua Appia and the aqua Augusta is said to be ‘ ad spem veterem ’ on
1 See also Horti Coponiani.
