Text Appearing Before Image:
ia Patricia in the Forum Boariumthat Virginia had been removed,—there is a fact of para-mount importance. Aside from the fact that in this area(situated as it was, outside the ancient pomerium) it wouldbe difficult to discover traces of an ancient patrician cult, weactually know that there did exist in that region a temple ofPudicitia—but it was of Pudicitia Plebeia. It was thattemple which (as we have had occasion to see in the legendof Servius Tullius) was by some reputed to be the seat ofthe goddess Fortuna.46 From this error, however, it doesnot by any means result that the story in Livy should bediscarded as a whole, without further consideration.

Venus Cloacina thus became recognized as thegoddess of chaste and holy matrimony. The cult of VenusCloacina is strictly patrician; and, if it is related that theplebeian Virginius slew his daughter near the statue of thatgoddess, such a statement proves still further that the legendof Virginia was connected with the patrician cult of VenusCloacina, and demonstrates the foreign origin of the talelocalized in the Forum Romanum. The transference oc-curred only after the neighboring taberncs had been altered
