Ancient Rome - Third Samnite War 298 bce

A wooded area dedicated to Tinia, the chief god of the Etruscan pantheon, akin to the Roman Jupiter. The grove is a place of worship, featuring a stone altar and statues where priests and citizens perform rituals to seek blessings and protection. It serves as both a sanctuary and a gathering place for religious ceremonies.

Lush green trees forming a natural canopy overhead, dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves onto a moss-covered stone altar, flanked by intricate statues of Etruscan deities, surrounded by vibrant wildflowers and the soft whispers of the wind.
