Roman Republican temple of Vesta
This is the Republican period temple of Vesta (actually it's probably not to Vesta, but that's what people call it anyway because we don't know which god it was originally for). This temple is in the Corinthian style, but round, which is unusual. The original roof is missing, and the one you see in the picture is just there to protect the columns. It doesn't look the way the original roof would have looked.
