The Tower of The Winds in the Roman Forum. The reliefs depict the various named winds and a weather vane on the roof pointed to the wind that was currently blowing.

The “Gate of Athena Archegetis”, the west gate of the Roman forum. Built with funds donated to Athens by Julius Caesar and Augustus. (Not sure what exactly that means but it was built well after Julius’ death, 15 years into the reign of Augustus. Greece had been a Roman province for 100+ years by then.)
