The eagle often symbolises the forces of good in Roman art, as it is the symbol of Jupiter, king of the gods in the Roman pantheon the snake usually stands for evil and in many pieces of ancient art, eagles are depicted in the act of killing snakes. A solid gold ring with a circular hoop with scalloped edges and shoulders and an oval-shaped orange carnelian intaglio bearing a snake (left) winding through a tree and eagle (right).
