All'angolo tra il "clivo Palatino " e la Sacra via, presso l'Arco di Tito, si trova il basamento di un tempio in conglomerato cementizio e blocchi, molti dei quali asportati. Fu realizzato probabilmente in epoca flavia (69-96 d.C.) poiché corrisponde, per posizione e orientamento, alla risistemazione urbanistica successiva all'incendio del 64 d.C. L'identificazione del tempio, a lungo ritenuto quello di Giove Statore, rimane ad oggi incerta. Un volta demolito, il suo basamento fu riutilizzato per una costruzione tarda, forse una torre medievale.

English:
At the corner of the "Clivus Palatinus" and the Sacra Via, near the Arch of Titus, is the podium of a temple made of concrete and stone blocks, most of which have been removed. It was probably built in the Flavian period (AD 69-96) since its position and orientation follow that of the urban reorganization after the fire of AD 64. The identification of the temple, long believed to be that of Jupiter Stator, is still uncertain. After demolition, the podium was reused for a later structure, perhaps a medieval tower.
