CURIA also denoted the places where the curie used to assemble. Each of the 30 curie of old Rome had a temple or chapel assigned to them for the common performance of their sacrifices, and other offices of their religion; so that they were not unlike our pa-
riishes. Some remains of these little temples seem to have subsisted many ages after on the Palatine hill, where Romulus first built the city, and afterwards resided.
