After Caesar's apotheosis on January 1, 42 BC, the triumvirs Lepidus, Mark Antony and Octavian decided to build a temple in honor of the conqueror. The temple in memory of the divine Julius was completed only on August 18, 29 BC and consecrated by Octavian. It was placed between the Emilian Basilica and the Temple of Castor in Forum (Regio VIII) exactly where Caesar's body was burnt after the dictator's death. The temple was decorated with the bows of the boats captured in the Battle of Actium.
