An independent sacred area on a mountain, similar to the Gellérthegy of Aquincum, was built in the neighbourhood of the legionary camp and the military town. In the area of the Capitoline triad and the luppiter temple large altars and columns were erected, decorated with the statues of luppiter and those of some emperors. A commemorative column was erected to Marcus Aurelius, who, during the Marcomann wars, stayed for a long time at the general headquarters in Carnuntum. The showplace of the ceremonies held in the sacred area were the theatre and the sacred road leading to it. In the centre of the cult the luppiter Optimus Maximus of Carnuntum stood. The Pfaffenberg sanctuary was built also in the neighbourhood of the centre of a Celtic tribe, that of the Boii. Like on the Gellérthegy, the feast of the cult was here held also on June 11. The remains can be traced from the early 2nd century on till the first third of the 4th century. The cult place became the victim of a deliberate devastation, the relics were found broken into small pieces. 2. Head of luppiter Limestone. The head is broken off at the neck and was probably part of a statue representing the enthroned Iupiter Optimus Maximus. The tip of the nose is damaged. The head is framed by a full beard and a thick hairline. The locks are wavy or curly and formed by sharp-edged strands. The eyes are large and very round. The mouth is crooked and slightly opened. The right part of the neck shows a small piece of the original plaster coating. The distored proportions of the head are due to is provincial provenance. - Dated the middle of the second century A.D. - H: 21,1 cm; W: 19,8 cm. - Bad Deutsch-Altenburg, Carnuntum, Pfaffenberg, near temple III - AMC, Inv. no.
