TimeTravelRome , 5 months ago French 🪔 For #ReliefWednesday: #Apollo relief from #Trier. Dated to the 2nd c AD, this relief depicts Apollo as God of healing springs. Apollo holds a jug from which water flows as a symbol of worship at healing springs. The tripod with a cauldron identifies him as the god of the oracle of Delphi. Stove and arrows indicate that a god of healing can also punish and kill. 📸 me #romanarchaeology #archaeology #antiquity #ancientart #ancientrome #ancienthistory @archaeodons @histodons @antiquidons
