Question: Where was the Roman Senate held!?
Where was the Roman Senate held!? This is for extra credit and I need to know either the name of the building or the name of an exact location!.

Our teacher showed us a picture of the building and it had these letters written on it:

M A G R I P P A L F C O S T E R T I V M P E C I T

I'm pretty sure that those letters are Latin but I wasn't sure where the spaces were at in the sentence!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The building where those letters are is the Pantheon - the Senate did not meet there - if your teacher told you that he is wrong!.

The words are latin and they mean "'Made by Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, consul for the third time"

The senate met in the Curia Julia - part of the Forum - the area of Rome with many major temples, basilicas and shrines were!.
