While the specific architect is unknown—typical for ancient Roman monuments—the structure reflects the work of highly skilled Roman builders versed in Greek architectural principles and Italic building traditions.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1502\" data-start=\"1215\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eUnlike the earlier listing, which is derived from a separate published survey, this model is based on an alternative body of drawings and reconstructions. As a result, it constitutes an independent interpretation of the temple’s form, rather than a duplication of the previous model.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"1527\" data-start=\"1504\"\u003eArchitectural Style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2140\" data-start=\"1529\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe temple is a tholos, or circular temple, executed in a variant of the Roman Corinthian order. Its fluted columns, carved acanthus capitals, and carefully proportioned entablature demonstrate Rome’s mastery of the classical architectural language.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2140\" data-start=\"1529\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eBecause this version follows a different documentary source, variations in ornamental detail are intentionally preserved, reflecting the specific drawings on which the model is based.
