Saepta Julia, Archaeological site in Campus Martius, Rome, Italy.
This rectangular complex measured 310 meters by 120 meters, featuring marble walls, ornate porticos, and Greek paintings along its corridors.
Julius Caesar initiated construction in 54 BC, with Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa completing and dedicating the structure in 26 BC as a voting precinct.
The building contained two distinct sections named Portico of Meleager and Portico of the Argonauts, displaying significant artworks from Ancient Rome.
The structure connected directly to the Diribitorium building, where officials counted votes cast during the Roman electoral assemblies known as comitia.
The Saepta Julia transformed from a voting center into an exhibition space, hosting gladiatorial games under Augustus and naval battle reenactments under Caligula.
