Description

Corinthian capital with vegetal decoration of acanthus leaves divided into two crowns topped by an upper floor in which the start of the volutes can be sensed, practically lost due to the deterioration of the piece. Each acanthus leaf stalk consists of a wide axial vein, two trilobed leaflets on each side, and an upper central slightly turned outwards. The base of the capital is completely flat.

The decoration is carefully and well made, creating effects of chiaroscuro and volume through the alabaster trepanning. Resting on the astragalus, he must have completed a monolithic column that would have been part of a forum building from the time of Tiberius in Caesaraugusta and, taking into account the place where it was found, it is possible that it belonged to the building complex in the southern sector of the city. large public square.
