Reverse description A tetrastyle temple set upon a podium of three steps, rendered in architectural detail with four columns supporting an entablature bearing the dedicatory inscription. Within the temple's cella stands a male figure in military dress, facing right, holding a spear in the right hand and a Victory statuette in the left. The legend COM - BIT appears in the field flanking the temple, while ROM S P AVG is inscribed within the entablature. The composition reflects the provincial Koinon's veneration of Rome and the imperial cult.
