A roman carnelian intaglio. Pantheistic goddess.
1st - 2nd century A.D.
The pantheistic divinity is seated on a throne, facing right, with numerous attributes: she holds the cornucopia with the left hand, the rudder and the ears of corn with the right. The figure is winged, draped and helmeted. That combination symbolizes the allegorical power of Athena and Fortuna-Tyche. Slight traces of burning.
