Summary
Rare fragments of Campana tiles, depicting the iconographic motif of Victory on a chariot, were uncovered during excavations at the Palazzo di Villa Adriana in Tivoli. These terracotta architectural elements, uncommon in the site's context, provide valuable insights into the villa's decorative schemes and stylistic influences. The study employs formal and stylistic comparisons to interpret the fragments' significance, contributing to our understanding of Roman iconography and its diffusion during the imperial period.
