This standard belonged to a collegium for young Hispano-Roman men located on the island of Mallorca. It is decorated with appliqués representing the goddesses Isis, Fortuna and Diana. At the top of the standard is a togate youth with a protective bulla around his neck. In his right hand he holds a patera from which he pours an offering on to the altar; and in his left hand is a cornucopia, the symbol of abundance and wealth.
This section contains objects associated with different aspects of the Roman presence in the Iberian Peninsula, such as the language and laws of Rome, Roman technologies for public works, and the creation of an urban society, reflected most notably in the forum. Meanwhile, everyday objects used inside and outside the home offer an insight into the daily lives of Hispano-Roman men and women.
