The oratory wells up within the Forum in the corner comprised between Vesta’s temple and the Dioscuri’s temple in the area defined Lacus Iuturnae (C.IIBC). This area’s buildings were then turned into Christian places of worship as of C. VI. The oratory’s name is probably due to the voluntary sacrifice by forty soldiers that refused to honor a pagan cult and were thus executed in the early C. IV. The building was discovered in 1901 and probably dates back to C.II.
