Sallustiano is the 17th rione of Rome, Italy, identified by the initials R. XVII. It is located within the Municipio I and the name refers to the ancient Gardens of Sallust (Horti Sallustiani), which were located here.

==History== During the Augustan age, the area belonged to the regio Alta Semita (Latin for 'high pathway'). Here were the Horti Sallustiani, which gave the rione its name, and the Temple of Venus Erycina, in the area between Via Piave and Via Calabria, no less important than the villa of Sallust, to the point that the golden mirror of the goddess on a blue background was chosen as the coat of arms of the rione. The famous Ludovisi Throne, found during the urbanization works in the area, was most likely part of the temple.
