拍品专文

The Temple of Saturn, originally built in 497 B.C., is one of the oldest sanctuaries in the Forum. The eight red and grey granite columns presently standing belong to a reconstruction of the 4th Century A.D. after the Empire had become Christian. The Saturnalia, or dedication feast of this temple, is the origin of the modern carnival.
