Description: The
Pantheon was dedicated to the seven planetary
gods in 128 CE. It was consecrated as a church
in the early seventh century. It is the major
surviving example of Roman concrete-vaulted architecture.
It is composed of a domed rotunda attached to
a columned entrance portico. Now free-standing,
it was originally the focal point of a long, porticoed
forecourt.
