The gilded letters of the arch

Curiosity · Medinaceli, Tierra de Medinaceli, Soria

Image of Medinaceli, not of the place itself.

The inscriptions that crowned the monument were made of gilded bronze letters: the north face was dedicated to Augustus and the south to Domitian, though in the year 98 it was altered to honour Trajan after the condemnation of his memory.
