Sandstone Altar to Jupiter from Castlesteads, England dated to 241 CE on display at the Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery in Carlisle, England

This altar to Jupiter and the Divinities of the Emperor was set up by a group of Tungrian soldiers in the 3rd century as part of their annual diedication. It honours both the Roman Emperor Gordian and the god Jupiter as well. One translation of the remaining text reads:

"To Jupiter, Best and Greatest, and to the Divinities of our Emperor the Second Cohort of Tungrians styled Gordiana, part-mounted, publicly praised, under the command of Tiberius Claudius Claudianus, the prefect, (set this up) under the direction of Publius Aelius Martinus, princeps, on the 1st of January in the consulship of our Lord and Emperor Gordian, for the second time, and Pompeianus."

The Tungrians came from modern day Belgium and were stationed at Castlesteads Roman Fort on Hadrian's Wall. There is a thunderbolt on one side of the altar and the wheel of Nemesis on the other.

Glass snake-thread flask shaped like a mouse,

Roman, 3rd century CE

Translucent cobalt blue, with same color added head, ears, eyes, feet, and snake-thread decoration. Rounded and thickened rim; funnel-shaped, elongated neck with tooling marks around base; misshapen piriform body, with separate large blob of glass applied to rounded bottom of body.

The neck has been turned upwards to appear like the mouse’s tail; added to the body of the vessel to create the animal are four separate tooled trails for the feet and for the head a large blob that has been drawn out to make a pointed nose; ears and eyes have also been added to the head; the body is further decorated with snake-thread trails, all flattened and notched, in the form of two long-necked, thin-legged birds, one on the animal’s back, the other on his belly between his feet, interspersed with foliage comprising tendrils and ivy leaves; a plain spiral trail is wound twice around the lower part of the neck.
