Securitas, the security of the Roman Empire, celebrated on the reverse of this sestertius by Hostilian.
In Roman mythology, Securitas was the goddess of security and stability, especially the security of the Roman Empire.[1][2] On coinage Securitas was usually depicted leaning on a column.[3]
On Sardinia during the Roman imperial period, a Latin inscription described the tomb of Titus Vinius as a shrine of Securitas.[4]
