He corresponded to the Esquiline, near the Colle Oppio, where now stands the church of San Pietro in Vincoli.<br />The temple of Giunone Lucina was dedicated on 1 March of 375 BC The Roman chroniclers report information anachronistic when they say that the King Servio Tullio had enacted a law requiring payment to the temple of a coin from the parents on the birth of every newborn in order to have a statistic birth<br /> Pliny the Elder reported that in the temple once stood an ancient forest of lotuses that was believed to be pre-existing compared to the temple itself.<br /><br />The writer Varro says that the temple was built on Mount Cispio, near the shrine of the sixth Argei. It probably had to be placed just west of the Basilica of Santa Praxedes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872899389981889829.post-36130912082717078332013-06-07T01:32:26.312-05:002013-06-07T01:32:26.312-05:00Hi there! glad to drop by your page and found thes...Hi there! glad to drop by your page and found these very interesting and informative stuff.

From what I've heard and read, women especially were targeted as witches, partly in an effort to subjugate ones who were too independent and also to confiscate property from them. It was really a judicially sanctioned war on people (but especially women) who didn't fit in or who ran afoul of those in power.<br />Thanks for bringing this to our attention.<br />Lisbeth<br />www.lisbetheng.comLisbeth Enghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04814466999337154397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872899389981889829.post-82569099770820753032010-04-06T11:54:34.747-05:002010-04-06T11:54:34.747-05:00Oooh, this is perfect!!!
