1. This appears to have been next to the Senate-house, and perhaps a sort of annex to it. A rebuilding of the atrium in 194 B.C. is mentioned in XXXIV. xliv. 5; hostages were kept there, according to XXV. vii. 12; archives for laws were maintained there (Festus 241); and the enrolment of freedmen in the city tribes took place there (XLV. xv. 5). The anniversary day of the sanctuary of Freedom was April thirteenth (Ovid, Fasti IV. 623). In the first century B.C., slaves were imprisoned there (Cicero, Pro Milone 59), and, following a plan of Julius Caesar's, Asinius Pollio founded there the first public library in Rome, with rich sculptural adornment (Ovid, Tristia III. 1. 71-2, Suetonius, Augustus 29).
