1. Title: Lamp Chimney from Triangular Temple, Verulamium: A Testament to Ancient Roman Worship and Craftsmanship This evocative image showcases a remarkable artifact from the rich history of the Roman town of Verulamium, now known as St. Albans in Hertfordshire, England. The Lamp Chimney, as it is commonly referred to, is a captivating piece of Roman pottery dating back to the early 2nd century AD. It was discovered at the site of the Triangular Temple, a fascinating structure dedicated to the goddess Cybele, the Great Mother Goddess of Anatolia, who was popularly worshipped throughout the Roman Empire. The Lamp Chimney is a testament to the advanced ceramic techniques and artistic prowess of the Roman craftsmen. Its unique design features a tall, slender body with an intricately shaped chimney, which was intended to allow the smoke from the lamp's wick to escape, ensuring a consistent and steady flame. The exterior is adorned with elegant, geometric patterns, reflecting the artistic sensibilities of the time. The discovery of the Lamp Chimney at the Triangular Temple site provides valuable insights into the religious practices and daily life of the Roman inhabitants of Verulamium. The presence of such an artifact suggests that the temple was an active place of worship, where devotees would gather to honor Cybele and offer sacrifices. The lamp itself would have been used to provide light during rituals, symbolizing the goddess's protective and nurturing role. This artifact, now preserved in a museum, serves as a powerful reminder of the vibrant history and rich cultural heritage of St. Albans and the Roman Empire. It invites us to explore the stories of the past and to appreciate the enduring legacy of Roman craftsmanship.
