Campidoglio (English spelling)

Japanese: カンピドリオ（英語表記）Campidoglio

A temple dedicated to the three gods Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva, the patron gods of ancient Rome, and one of the seven hills of the city that was the sacred precinct of the temple. Also known as Capitolino. From the Latin Capitolium. Located on the northwest side of the Roman Forum, the city's central square, Roman generals always visited here when they returned in triumph. The temple was built in the Etruscan style in 509 BC and has since been restored many times, including a complete reconstruction in the mid-1st century AD, and the addition of a tabularium (archive) to the east, but its unique plan (what Vitruvius called a "Tuscan" temple) with three cellas (chambers) dedicated to each of the three gods has been preserved as is.

古代ローマ市の守護神ユピテルとユノ，ミネルウァの3神を祀る神殿，およびその神域となっていたローマ市の七つの丘のひとつ。別名カピトリーノCapitolino。ラテン語のカピトリウムCapitoliumから出る。市の中心広場フォルム･ロマヌムの北西側にあり，ローマの将軍は凱旋の際に必ずここに参詣した。神殿は前509年にエトルリア風の形式で建設されて以来，幾度も修復され，なかでも後1世紀半ばには全面的に改築，また東側にはタブラリウム(公文書館)なども付設されたが，3神それぞれを祀る三つのケラ(房室)を持つ独自の平面形式(ウィトルウィウスの言う〈トスカナ式〉神殿)は，そのまま保持され続けた。
