Description: the goddess Roma sitting in profile to the left, upon a cuirass. She wears a plumed helmet and short chiton, and holds her parazonium in her left hand. In her right, instead of the usual Victory, is a clean-shaven bust at which the goddess stares intently. the three projections on the brow may be intended to represent a laurel wreath. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/terms.htm | Publisher: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Rights holder: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Subjects: | engraved gems Unknown ringstone | Temporal: | name=late first century A.D.; start=70; end=100 | Source: | Fitzwilliam Museum | Creator: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Identifier: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdire... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
