The Arch of Gallienus is the Porta Esquilina, an ancient Roman arch in the Servian Wall of Rome. It was here that the ancient Roman roads via Labicana and via Tiburtina started. The arch was rebuilt in monumental style in the Augustan period[1]. In 262, the equestrian (Marcus) Aurelius Victor[2] rededicated the arch to the emperor Gallienus and his wife Cornelia Salonina.
