Corinthian order
The Temple of Magna Mater, also known as the Temple of Cybele, was dedicated near the Clivus Victoriae on the Palatine Hill on 11 April 191 BCE. The original temple was destroyed by fire in 111 BCE. Following another series of destructive fires, Augustus restored the temple, as he records in his Res Gestae Divi Augusti.
