SVA By this we leara that the Goddess was nained Fortuna Augusta, and that Marcus TulliMS, Digitized by Google POMPEIANA. 76 elected by the people three times, erected ^the temple on his own ground, and at his own expense. A small court, immediately under the south wall of the portico, was also the pro- perty of the same person, as is proved by the inscription on a volcanic stone erected close to the podium of the temple.

A head of Bacchus, which supported a round table, was found here, with two cups, a mor- tar, and other utensils of bronze. Some have thought fit to dispute the identity of this family of the Tullii with that of the great orator, and to give, as a reason, the absence of the word Cicero in these in- scriptions which Plutarch thought derived from the cultivation of pulse in ancient times, as was the case with the agricultural names of the families of Lentulus and Fabius.
