                  <text>Also referred to as “Black Stone” in Latin, this site was discovered in a series of excavations by Giacomo Boni from 1899-1900, and was found to have been located between Curia Julia and the Arch of Septimius Severus in the Roman Forum. During its active lifetime, this sanctuary had an open-air, horseshoe shaped altar dating to around 350-300 BCE, columns dedicated for cult worship, and an inscribed stela with boustrophedon text—meaning alternate lines of writing and its letters were written in reverse. This stela is called the Cippo Del Foro Romano, and it was dated back to the middle of the Royal Period, so around 575-500 BCE. It was made of plaster and had a lex sacrata inscription that usually either detailed a law accompanied by an oath, or it threatened penalty for violators of a certain place. Though there is no direct translation available, given that it was written in Old Latin, the content that was able to be transcribed is as follows: &#13;
&#13;
“QUOI HON…SAKROS ESED…REGEI/KALATOREM…IOUXMENTA/KAPIA…IOUESTOD”&#13;
&#13;
	Dionysius of Halicarnassus, a Greek historian and teacher of rhetoric, helps us out by suggesting that this stela was perhaps an epitaph of Hostilius and his bravery against the Sabines. However, Pompeius Festus, an earlier Imperial period writer, writes, “the black stone in the Comitium marks an unlucky spot: according to some it was intended to serve as a grave of Romulus, but this intention was not carried out, and in the place of Romulus his foster-father Faustulus was buried” (Milligan). Though, it is interesting to note that this exact area was said to have been the place where Romulus was either killed or had been taken to heaven, which is why this monument has also been referred to as the ‘Tomb of Romulus’. &#13;
	It was inferred that this site also acted as a repository for objects that reminded the Romans of their monarchy past and was seen as a unified place of memory that had quite a special status in the late Republic—as it was associated with death, mournfulness, and fatefulness. This is because votive gifts were found, suggesting that it may have acted as a sanctuary and that the Romans intentionally buried this site. &#13;

                  <text>Currently in the Louvre, this statue dates from the Imperial Roman period, approximately after 80 AD and between 177-138 AD. This estimated dating lends itself to the fact that personifications of both the Tiber and Nile rivers were ubiquitous during the reign of Hadrian, especially through the distribution of coins, though it is important to recognize that the dating remains a topic of debate. In terms of general provenance, it was found in the Field of Mars, Rome in 1512, and it measures 222 cm (~7.3 ft) in height and 317 cm (~10.4 ft) in width. Moreover, it is made of Pentelic marble, and was carved in the round, with bas relief on the base of the statue. Historically, it had once decorated the temple dedicated to Isis and Sarapis, and was found in conjunction with the Nile statue—which is now in the Vatican. Along with its brother statue, Tiber was briefly held in the Vatican, as well, before being seized by France under the Treaty of Tolentino in 1797 and taken to the Louvre Museum.&#13;
Moving on to the iconography present in this statue, first and foremost, it represents the river God Tiber, who is depicted reclining, mature, and bearded. He holds two attributes in both hands, which, together, symbolize the benefits that he has bestowed upon the Roman citizens. In his left hand, he holds an oar, which symbolizes the gift of navigation, and in his right hand, he holds the horn of abundance, which symbolizes the river’s health-giving properties. Romulus and Remus occupy the bottom left of the statue, and they were regarded as Rome’s twin founders—according to Roman myth. Lastly, the bas reliefs on the bottom of the statue show three scenes: animals grazing, depictions of navigation, and the myth of Aeneas. &#13;

                  <text>Currently in the Louvre, this statue dates from the Imperial Roman period, approximately after 80 AD and between 177-138 AD. This estimated dating lends itself to the fact that personifications of both the Tiber and Nile rivers were ubiquitous during the reign of Hadrian, especially through the distribution of coins, though it is important to recognize that the dating remains a topic of debate. In terms of general provenance, it was found in the Field of Mars, Rome in 1512, and it measures 222 cm (~7.3 ft) in height and 317 cm (~10.4 ft) in width. Moreover, it is made of Pentelic marble, and was carved in the round, with bas relief on the base of the statue. Historically, it had once decorated the temple dedicated to Isis and Sarapis, and was found in conjunction with the Nile statue—which is now in the Vatican. Along with its brother statue, Tiber was briefly held in the Vatican, as well, before being seized by France under the Treaty of Tolentino in 1797 and taken to the Louvre Museum.&#13;
Moving on to the iconography present in this statue, first and foremost, it represents the river God Tiber, who is depicted reclining, mature, and bearded. He holds two attributes in both hands, which, together, symbolize the benefits that he has bestowed upon the Roman citizens. In his left hand, he holds an oar, which symbolizes the gift of navigation, and in his right hand, he holds the horn of abundance, which symbolizes the river’s health-giving properties. Romulus and Remus occupy the bottom left of the statue, and they were regarded as Rome’s twin founders—according to Roman myth. Lastly, the bas reliefs on the bottom of the statue show three scenes: animals grazing, depictions of navigation, and the myth of Aeneas. &#13;

                  <text>Currently in the Louvre, this statue dates from the Imperial Roman period, approximately after 80 AD and between 177-138 AD. This estimated dating lends itself to the fact that personifications of both the Tiber and Nile rivers were ubiquitous during the reign of Hadrian, especially through the distribution of coins, though it is important to recognize that the dating remains a topic of debate. In terms of general provenance, it was found in the Field of Mars, Rome in 1512, and it measures 222 cm (~7.3 ft) in height and 317 cm (~10.4 ft) in width. Moreover, it is made of Pentelic marble, and was carved in the round, with bas relief on the base of the statue. Historically, it had once decorated the temple dedicated to Isis and Sarapis, and was found in conjunction with the Nile statue—which is now in the Vatican. Along with its brother statue, Tiber was briefly held in the Vatican, as well, before being seized by France under the Treaty of Tolentino in 1797 and taken to the Louvre Museum.&#13;
Moving on to the iconography present in this statue, first and foremost, it represents the river God Tiber, who is depicted reclining, mature, and bearded. He holds two attributes in both hands, which, together, symbolize the benefits that he has bestowed upon the Roman citizens. In his left hand, he holds an oar, which symbolizes the gift of navigation, and in his right hand, he holds the horn of abundance, which symbolizes the river’s health-giving properties. Romulus and Remus occupy the bottom left of the statue, and they were regarded as Rome’s twin founders—according to Roman myth. Lastly, the bas reliefs on the bottom of the statue show three scenes: animals grazing, depictions of navigation, and the myth of Aeneas. &#13;
