This is my recreation of the Temple of Mars Ultor from the Forum of Augustus; there's been some requests to have a separate world download for this structure. More information about this temple can be found in my Forum of Augustus post here: https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/forum-of-augustus/
A little bit about this temple: The Temple of Mars Ultor was commissioned by Emperor Augustus (Octavian) to memorialize his revenge at the Battle of Philippi (42 BCE) against the masterminds of Julius Caesar's assassination, Gaius Cassius and Brutus. Augustus was assisted by Mark Antony at Philippi as he also had a lust for vengeance, but their paths would eventually diverge as a power vacuum erupted following the battle and their return to Rome. Mars Ultor is the variant for the Roman god of vengeance.
The temple itself is very Roman in design with a front facade and staircase, heavy ornamentation, and a high podium. The unique thing about this temple is its back wall, which was flat and made of peperino to prevent frequent fires from spreading into the Forum of August from the Suburra (the poor district).
Hope you enjoy this build! Stay tuned for more. If you have any build suggestions or business inquiries, please reach out to me via Discord (Praetorian#7425) or PMC -- i check both platforms daily. Thank you, and enjoy!
