Pantheon Roman Empire Symbols Charm

While most Roman temples focused on a singular deity, the Pantheon was dedicated to the entire array of Roman Gods. It was built between 27-25 BC by the consul Marco Vipsanio Agrippa — favorite architect and son-in-law of Augustus — who entrusted its construction to Lucio Cocceio Aucto. Cassius Dio Cocceiano lists it with the Basilica of Neptune and the Laconian Gymnasium among the works built at his expense by Agrippa in the Campus Martius.
