History
The Temple of Veiovis, also attested as Aedes Vediovis, was a temple of ancient Rome located on the Capitoline Hill in a location known as "inter duos lucos" that is interpreted to mean a saddle between the two summits of the hill. The remains of a temple podium were discovered beneath the northwest corner of the Palazzo Senatore in 1938-1939.

The consul L. Furius Purpurio vowed the original temple of Veiovis on the Capitoline Hill in 198 B.C. It was dedicated by Q. Marcius Raila in 192 B.C. The final architectural phase is related to the construction of the Tabularium in the first century B.C.
