| Temple of Jupiter..... Diocletian had a temple to Jupiter in the palace grounds. And, it also came as no surprise that it was eventually converted into a Christian baptistery. It was tiny. Jupiter apparently didn't merit as much attention as Diocletian's mausoleum or home complex. However, the half-barrel shaped vaulted ceiling was unique. It had a checkerboard design of stone faces and patterns. According to the guidebook, it was the best preserved example of its kind anywhere. That alone made it worth the price of admission. | ||||
