Scientists SHOCKING Discovery About Ancient Rome

Ancient Roman temples were among the most essential structures in Roman culture and some of the finest buildings in Roman architecture. Still, only a few survived in any complete state. Today they remain the most prominent symbol of Roman architecture. Roman temples were a place to worship the many deities of the Roman polytheistic religion. Polytheistic, meaning they worshiped many gods, each needing its own sacred spaces where it could be worshiped. All such temples built by the Romans have been lost with the rubble of the earth.

But it is "very rare" to discover old Roman temples with painted interiors that have survived to the present day. One such Roman Temple is the Ancient Temple of Cupra.
Let’s find out more about this Ancient Temple.

The Cupra Temple was one of the ancient wonders of the Roman Empire. Built at the start of the 1st century CE, the temple was dedicated to the Etruscan-turned-Roman goddess Cupra. Archaeologists were able to recover fragments of the frescoed walls and ceiling of the temple that was built 2,000 years ago. The frescoes were painted in shades of blue, yellow, red, black, and green. They were adorned with flowering garlands, representations of candelabra, and small palms.

It is for the very first time that the ruins of a shrine that was painted with such a diverse range of hues, still in an extraordinarily well-preserved state, and with such lavish, intricate ornamentation have been discovered.
