It was dedicated to the Lares of Augustus by four officials of a street nine years after Augustus had restored the street shrines. That was in 6 B.C. (Dion Cassius, lv. 8); so this altar was erected in A.D. 3.
On the right side under the cornice is inscribed,—
P . CLODIVS . P
and on the left side,—
S . L . L . SALVIVS .
evidently the names of two of the officials.
The altar stands on a travertine base, on which is written,—
maGISTRI . VICI . ÆSCLETI . ANNI . VIIII
which is valuable as giving us the name of the street Vicus Æscletus, Beech Street.
