The Dea Barberini remained for some time one of the few examples of Roman paintings known to western scholars. It dates to the 4th c. CE and was discovered in 1655 near S. Giovanni in Laterano. The figure of Venus was restored by antiquaries as the goddess Rome (see b/w pic)

The two faced god Janus gives his name to the month of January and he is the god of beginnings. In his statue in ancient Rome, the shape of the right hand signified the number 300 the left hand 65, totalling 365 the number of days in the year. Hand shapes symbolised numbers.
