Details:

Temple A in the Largo Argentina is a third century B.C. temple that was likely dedicated to Iuturna by Caius Lutatius Catulus after his victory against the Carthaginians in 241 B.C. The temple was later incorporated into a Christian church, elements of which remain visible - notably the apse.
