Description

Amtic temple invented and designed in the manner of those who were built in honor of the Goddess Vesta: therefore in the middle of the great Ara, above which the inextinguishable sacred fire was preserved by the Vestal Virgins.

The whole work is Corintia decorated with statues and low reliefs, and still other ornaments.

The floor of this Temple is not easily elevated from the ground: you can see the round Cell in the middle, as well as the whole great Vase of the Temple itself: four loggias led to it, and by as many stairs faces ascended.

The walls of the great temple itself have two orders, above the second a vast dome with arches, and rose windows, and ends in a large opening, from which depends the light to the cell that is below.
