The engraving, dating back to the 19th century, is part of a collection titled "Usi e Costumi di Tutti i Popoli dell'Universo" which delves into the history and customs of various nations. In this image, we see a distinguished figure adorned with traditional attire and an elaborate crown made of leaves. The priest's regal appearance reflects their esteemed position within Roman society. As they stand before an altar, it becomes evident that this individual plays a crucial role in religious ceremonies and rituals. The engraving offers us a glimpse into the rich tapestry of ancient Rome's religious practices and beliefs. Paganism was prevalent during this time period, with natural elements often incorporated into worship.
