Hiberna Bank Of San Francisco

The Romans did not have buildings designated as headquarters. If you are referring to the army, during a campaign, the winter quarters/camp (castra hiberna) acted as headquarters. Fighting occurred during the summer and when the army moved around it set up summer camps (castra aestiva or aestivalia) which were temporary and where the soldiers slept in tents (sub tentoriis). The castra hiberna had barracks which were originally made of wood and later of stone and were more like forts. When troops became permanently stationed in a region they had castra stativa, standing camps. These would act as headquarters.

The word is derived from the Latin "hiberna" meaning a winter camp or winter quarters. It means to spend the winter in a dormant (not really awake) state. It can be applied to either plants or animals. In the case of animals they usually set up "winter quarters" in a cave or sheltered spot. This shelter is called a Hibernaculum
