Albunea, the Tiburtine Sibyl, was in Roman mythology a prophetic nymph or Sibyl, a naiad who lived in the sulfuric spring near Tibur (Tivoli), with a well and a temple. Near it was the oracle of Faunus Fatidicus. Lactantius states that the tenth Sibyl, called Albunea, was worshiped at Tibur, and that her image, holding a book in one hand, was found in the bed of the river Anio. Her oracles, called sortes, belonged to the libri fatales and were at the command of the senate, deposited and kept in the Capitol. The small square temple of this Sibyl is still extant at Tivoli.
