"Lightning Strikes the Forum"
Though a puteal is often described as a "wellhead", the Puteal
Scribonianum depicted here was a walled enclosure erected around the spot
of a lightning strike in the Roman Forum. The Romans
believed such spots were marked by the gods, and hence worthy
of veneration. Erected circa 204 BC. by a member of the
Libo clan, the Puteal became a popular meeting spot for
money lenders and merchants.
