Xi. 53. ) 4 THE HOUSE OF PUDENS IN ROME. family of Pudens with Britain is afforded by the well-known inscription found at Chichester, and preserved in the park of Goodwood, near to that city. This inscription records the grant of land for building a temple by Pudens, in his capacity of governor of the southern province of Britain. It is now generally acknowledged that the Acts of the Martyrs and the Roman Martyrology were compiled in the ! eighth or ninth century, and are in themselves of no i ...historical authorit3^ They are compiled from various sources ; of very different authenticity; but the Acts of Justin Martyr ; have generally been allowed to be genuine, and in these we ' have strong testimony in f^ivour of the history of the house j of Pudens. When S. Justin is being examined by the j Prefect, he is asked " in what place the Christians were ] accustomed to assemble in Rome 1 " At first he evades the j question, saying that they do not all assemble at the same ! jilace ; but, as the Prefect presses the question again as to i where he himself has resided in Rome, he replies, in the i house of a certain Martin, in the baths of Timotheus, * which ] is another name for the baths or tJiermcE of Kovatus, viade \ in the house of Pudens.
