Commentary


Rubans de type 3. Ptéryges invisibles sous le paludamentum. Revers inhabituel et beaucoup plus rare que le temple traditionnel de Volusien. Le temple est seulement distyle et repose sur une seule marche. Junon et bien assise, mais le trône est absent. Il n’y a ni enfant, ni paon aux pieds de Junon.
Type 3 ribbons. Pteryges invisible under the paludamentum. Unusual reverse and much rarer than the traditional Volusian temple. The temple is only disstyled and rests on a single step. Juno is seated, but the throne is absent. There is neither child nor peacock at Juno's feet.
