Veiovis
  (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
The Temple of Veiovis was only brought to light in 1939, during the excavation underneath Piazza del Campidoglio for the creation of the Gallery Junction.
According to ancient sources, and based on the discovery, in the area of the cella, of a marble statue used for religious purposes, it has been possible to identify the divinity to whom this temple was dedicated: Veiovis, the youthful God of the underworld who was the ancient Italic version of Jupiter.
Latin authors define its position as being "inter duos lucos", that is to say between two sacred woods situated on the two heights of the Capitoline Hill.
