Horseracing track (Philox., CGL 2.201) located in the West of Campus Martius. The term ‘trigarium’ is generally interpreted as the racing track for chariots drawn by three horses (trigae), an event held only in Archaic times (Dion. Hal., Ant. Rom. 7.73.2). Nonetheless, there could have been a revival of these races in the Imperial period (Coarelli, LTUR 89). The Trigarium served as the temporary racetrack (circus temporalis) of the ludi Saeculares (Pighi 1965, 118, 167) to host horse races (Coarelli 1977, 839); it not only shared a topographical contiguity with the Tarentum but also a typological association (Zos. 2.2.3). Perhaps other ceremonies of archaic character and involving horse races, such as the Equirria and the October equus, were held in the Trigarium (Coarelli LTUR 89).
