The Tabularium is at the western extreme of the Forum Romanum, behind the Temple of Concord, the Temple of Vespasian and Titus and the Portico of the Dii Consentes. It is build on the side of the Capitoline Hill. The Tabularium was build in 79 BC on initiative of the consul Quintus Lutatius Catulus as a part of the reconstruction efforts on the Capitolium after the fire of 83 BC. It was destined for the state archives (the "tabulae" were the public documents). Visit Rome!
