Porta Fontinalis

Tenkelige rester

Porta Fontinalis var en gammel byport gjennom Serviusmuren i Roma. Den er kjent fra kun litterære kilder[1] og tre innskrifter.[2].

I året 193 v. Kr. anla edilene Marcus Aemilius Lepidus og Lucius Aemilius Paullus en portikus fra porta Fontinalis til Mars-alteret på Campus Martius. Selv om det eneste man vet om dette alterets beliggenhet er at det var vest for Via Lata, lar det seg slutte at porten må ha vært nordvest for Kapitol et sted ved clivus Argentarius, der en gate løp fra Campus Martius til Forum Romanum. Manvet av Seriusmuren løp i dette området, og det antas alment at porta Fontinalis var del av muren her.

Etter innskriftene å dømme stod porten fremdeles i keisertiden og var en kjent landemerke. Nøyaktig lar den seg ikke sikkert stedfeste, og arkeologiske funn har ikke vært til hjelp idet de kan like så godt skyldes andre hamle bygningsverker.
