EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, the circular Temple of Hercules Victor and the Temple of the Virile Fortune, or Portonus, stand proudly against the backdrop of Rome's ancient history. Located in the Forum Boarium, the heart of ancient Rome's cattle market, these temples are two of the city's most intriguing and well-preserved archaeological sites. The Temple of Hercules Victor, built in the second century BC, was once believed to be a Temple of Vesta, the Roman goddess of the hearth and home. However, recent archaeological findings have confirmed its true identity as a temple dedicated to Hercules, the powerful Roman god of strength and victory. The temple's circular design, with its distinctive Corinthian columns, is a testament to the innovative architectural techniques of ancient Rome. Adjacent to the Temple of Hercules Victor, the Temple of the Virile Fortune, or Portonus, was also built in the second century BC. This temple, dedicated to Fortuna Virilis, the goddess of fertility and sexuality, is a striking example of ancient Roman architecture. The temple's exterior is adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, showcasing the artistic prowess of the Roman civilization. The Forum Boarium, with its rich history and architectural wonders, offers a glimpse into the ancient world of Rome. These temples, standing the test of time, serve as a reminder of the grandeur and sophistication of the Roman Republic and Empire. The image captures the essence of Rome's past, transporting us back to a time when civilization was at its peak. The temples' enduring presence in the heart of the city is a testament to the enduring legacy of Rome and its ancient past.
