Right in the centre of the picture, as in the centre of the Roman Forum, the temple of Cæsar represents primarily the entry of Rome in the Empire. A fairly high terrace dominated its podium with a hemicycle that housed a small round altar. Its construction closed the Forum on the south west side, giving the whole complex a new vitality.










Jacques Plassard suggests a synthetic picture that identifies very well the hemicycle and the small altar. One could go down from the podium through the side stairs.
