The Temple of Saturn also acted as the treasury (the aerarium). The gold and silver reserves, public funds and their accounts were stored here. The temple also housed the standards of the legions, enacted laws inscribed on bronze tablets, and the copies of senatorial decrees. The latter were then transferred to the state archives which were held to a new nearby building, the tabularium. The official scales for the weighing of metals were also held in this temple.
