Description:
|
The Basilica of Caius and Lucius was built by Augustus and named for his grandsons. A basilica was building which could serve as a court of law and an exchange, or place of meeting for merchants or business men. Julius Caesar built the Basilica Julia and completed by Augustus. It burnt and was rebuilt by Augustus, who renamed it the Basilica of Caius (or Gaius) and Lucius. The new name did not last, however and it is now known as the Basilica Julia. Fragments of the building remain.
