The Temple of Castor and Pollux dates to the early days of the Republic. It was dedicated to the twin figures, Castor and Pollus, who were Dioscuri, in 484 B.C. who, as legend has it, appeared on the battle field to assist the Romans to defeat the Tarquins and their Latin allies at the Battle of Lake Regillus in 496 B.C. The existing Corinthian columns and entablature on which the model in this lot is based belong to a restoration of the Hadrianic or Trajanic period.
