Bibliotheca Colonnade

You stand before an imposing colonnade leading to the Palatine Library established by Augustus, containing two sections, one filled with works in Greek, the other in Latin.

For an idea of the riches to be found in Latin libraries try the following sites:

• Bibliotheca Augustana
• The Latin Library
• The Perseus Project

To reach Tristia Tresunus's eighth stop, take the Palatine Library exit; to retrace your steps toward his ninth stop, take the Porticus exit.
