FOR'ULUS. A dwarf bookcase, or cabinet for books (Juv. iii. 219.); not permanently fixed to the walls, like the armarium, but forming a small moveable repository (Suet. Aug. 31.), for a few favourite authors, like the example annexed (Forulus/1.1), from a bas-relief on a sarcophagus, now used as the receiving basin of a fountain in one of the streets at Rome.
