Officinae Minii: mills for the working of red lead (minium) brought to Rome from Spain (Vitr. VII.9.4). They were on the Quirinal between the temple of Flora and that of Quirinus (q.v.), and therefore probably at the foot of the hill, near the present Via Rasella (BC 1889, 379; RhM 1894, 407; HJ 412).

Ops, aedes, templum: see separate page.

Orbona, fanum: a shrine ad aedem Larum, that is, on the Velia, of which nothing further is known (Cic. de nat. deor. iii.63; Plin. NH II.16, from Cicero; for Orbona and her meaning, cf. Tert. ad nat. II.15; Cypr. 4; Rosch. II.209, and literature there cited).

Orcus, aedes: a temple that Elagabalus destroyed to make room for his temple of Elagabalus on the Palatine (Hist. Aug. Elag. 1.6; for a conjectural site, see Iuppiter Ultor, templum; and for a possible identification, see Horta. Orci is a conjecture for orti or horti of the MSS.).

Orfienses: see Lacus Orphei.

p373 Ovile (Ovilia): see separate page.
