Published by: Tom Elliott - Mausoleum of Tor di Quinto
A circular mausoleum dating to the time of the Roman Empire is visible today at Tor di Quinto. Elements of this marble funereal monument were uncovered in excavations conducted by a landowner in 1876 along the Via Flaminia, not far from the Porta del Popolo. The marble elements were expropriated by the state and then fell into neglect for more than 20 years. By 1897 the Museo Nazionale Romano had an interest in purchasing the remains, but had insufficient funds to do so. The Baron Albert Blanc purchased the marbles and partially restored the monument on his property, the Villa Blanc. Giacomo Boni assisted in the reconstruction of the monument.

Published by: Tom Elliott, Jeffrey Becker - Temple of Diomedes (Ploča)
Archaeological evidence in the vicinity of the 14th-century Church of St. John of Trogir on the Croatian Ploča peninsula indicates the presence, in Hellenistic times, of at least a small temple and associated pottery dump. Epigraphic evidence ties the temple to Diomedes, presumably as a protector of navigation. Pliny's testimony that the promontory itself bore the name of Diomedes corroborates this evidence.

Modern Cape Ploča / Punta Planka on Croatia's Adriatic coast. Pleiades follows Pliny, the only extant source providing names for this feature, who treats "Hyllis" and "Diomedis" as two names for the same landform. BAtlas and, later, Shipley and Šešelj, treated "Diomedis" as the small, narrow promontory on which an ancient temple to Diomedes stood and "Hyllis" as the larger, blunt peninsula of which it was a part due to the presence of the Hylloi, attested in the Periplus of Pseudo-Skylax, who seem to have inhabited the area.
Modifications: Adjusted romanization. Created new name. Geographic name. Initial revision. Edited. Consolidated two place resources inherited from BAtlas into a single resource and adjusted modified summary and modified title, Shipley reference, and names to reflect this modification. Also added new references and additional Names; added second BAtlas reference Tom Elliott. Convert to BAtlas label, rather than geographic name Tom Elliott.

Following TIR, the Barrington Atlas tentatively placed this ancient settlement at the archaeological site in Spain known today as Cerro del Cogolludo, which is located near the modern town of Navalvillar de Pela. Variants of the ancient placename are attested in inscriptions and in Ptolemy and Pliny. The latter two differ in provincial association, leading some scholars to speculate that two separate settlements with similar names existed in ancient times.
