1. Tempio della Concordia / Temple of Concord Marker
The temple, of which only the podium and a small part of the elevation survives, was built by Furius Camillus in 367 BC after the peace between patricians and plebeians. Rebuilt on several occasions, the remains are those of the later temple constructed by Tiberius in AD 10. Due to the narrowness of the space available, the pronaos is placed on the long rather than the short side of the cella. For the richness of its votive offerings, especially from Augustus's wife Livia, the temple became a true museum with paintings and sculptures by the most important Greek artists.

One tradition ascribes the first Temple of Concord to a vow made by Camillus in 367 BC, on the occasion of the Lex Licinia Sextia, the law passed by the tribunes Gaius Licinius Stolo and Lucius Sextius Lateranus, opening the consulship to the plebeians. The two had prevented the election of any magistrates for a period of several years, as part of the conflict of the orders. Nominated dictator to face an invasion of the Gauls, Camillus, encouraged by his fellow patrician Marcus Fabius Ambustus, Stolo's father-in-law, determined to resolve the crisis by declaring his support for the law, and vowing a temple to Concordia, symbolizing reconciliation between the patricians and plebeians.(Submitted on August 25, 2023, by James Hulse of Medina, Texas.)
