| Description |
This tintinnabulum with seven bells has a rich iconography, rare for Gaul : Mercury capped with its winged petasus is surrounded by horns of abundance loaded with fruits, connected by the tip and masked by acanthus leaves. Smaller, the Capitoline triad : Minerve on the left, Jupiter in the center and Junon on the right. Hanging on the outside to protect the place from evil influences with its bells tinkling in the wind. |
