An anchor (in situ, 1932) from one of the two large ancient ships built by Emperor Caligula during his reign (37-41 AD) in honour of the goddess Diana. They were recovered in 1929 and 1932 from Lake Nemi, the crater lake of an extinct volcano, 27 km southeast of Rome. In 1944 they were destroyed by fire.

"From the start, they're each other's ideal. They've tried to love other people, and it's never worked. [...] I think it's also a part of Cesare's vanity, his love for his sister. Lucrezia is his female counterpart. She completes him" — FRANÇOIS ARNAUD, THE BORGIAS (2011 - 2013)

"Caligula cared for nobody in the world but himself and Drusilla. Only himself actually, because Drusilla was an extension of himself, the female half of him, the other side of his coin. They even looked alike, with their golden hair and their wide blue eyes." — GORE VIDAL, CALIGULA (1979)
