Summary
editDescriptionBronze eagle shaped plaque - aquila (51234150144).jpg | This plate, the function of which is unknown, shows the appearance of an eagle (aquila in Latin). Eagles had special significance for the Romans: it was the sacred bird of the supreme god Jupiter, and representations of eagles also crowned standards of Roman legions. Military standard, adorned with an eagle, was extremely important for a legion: if an enemy seized it, it was a shame in the eyes of the Romans, and the legion - and maybe even all Rome- expected some misfortune. Everything was done to regain the standard. Bronze. 0-300 AD. Now in the British Museum, inv. 1975,0307.7. Picture taken at the Oog in oog met de Romeinen (Eye to Eye with the Romans) Exhibition in the Gallo-Romeins Museum of Tongres. |
