In text RmVt1 the general text of Vitruvius was discussed, who was he, his career etc., and it analysed various parts of the technical text of DE ARCHITECTURA.
This text is solely concerned with his description of the Basilica at Fanum Fortunae, its situation and design, as can be analysed from the text.
Necessary for this investigation is a historical time line for Fanum Fortunae, in the broadest of terms only.
The design of the Basilica is then diagrammatically illustrated to include all of the elements that Vitruvius details. However it is not an attempt to finalize a design. It is merely a guide, as the various translations from the original text of Vitruvius and his archaic technical Latin, when read in the English language, are so very different in their content and meaning.
The text is 13 A4 pages and there are 16 diagrams.
