Netherby Genius, Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, Carlisle, Cumbria, England

The Netherby Genius, a Roman relief sculpture of a genius or guardian spirit, found at Netherby, the site of Castra Exploratorum Roman Fort, before 1725, at the Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, Carlisle, Cumbria, England. The figure is sacrificing over an altar with a sacrificial vessel in his right hand, and cornucopia or horn of plenty in his left. He is wearing a crown decorated with walls and turrets and is sculpted in an arched niche. Carlisle sits at the Western end of Hadrian's Wall. Hadrian's Wall was built 73 miles across Britannia, now England, 122-128 AD, under the reign of Emperor Hadrian, ruled 117-138, to mark the Northern extent of the Roman Empire and guard against barbarian attacks from the Picts to the North. The wall was fortified with milecastles with 2 turrets in between, and a fort about every 5 Roman miles. Picture by Manuel Cohen
