Summary edit

Description The east façade of the Roman Basilica, which faced on to the main street, was ornamented with a frieze depicting shields and breastplates; this “Monument of the Shields” is now on the west side of the central avenue. The frieze was carved in the second half of the 4th century BC, probably as part of the decoration of some public building in the city’s Hellenistic agora.
