Sulla scultura
Worship of Cybele, or Magna Mater (the Great Mother), extends back thousands of years in Anatolia. The Senate voted to have her cult brought to Rome in the late 3rd century BCE in response to a prophecy that she would aid Rome in its war against Carthage. Although typically accompanied by lions and carrying a drum, here she is identified by her crown and gesture of offering.
