| The fasti are located in the Sala della Lupa, the same room as the bronze wolf. |
| The fasti were first exhibited in the Forum in 304 bc by the aedile Gnaeus Flavius, who broke a patrician monopoly on their use, and thereafter such lists became common. |
| He was relying on the official dating scheme, which must have been the fasti consulares. |
| The word fasti itself came to denote lists organized by time. |
| The temporal structure distinguished fasti from regesta, which were simple lists of property, or assets, such as land or documents, or transactions transferring property. |
| Michelangelo, who designed the complex of three palaces on the hill, also restored the tables of the fasti. |
