Right Side of Altar

The altar of the Julian family seems to be decorated on all sides with solemn ceremonies. On this side of the altar, you see a flamen surrounded by his lictors (he wears the hat with the pointed top; they carry bundles of rods). You also see a boy carrying one of the lares of the imperial household. This must have been an important event--someone carved the whole thing in stone and placed it all right on the doorstep of Jupiter!
