Parabiago Plate, File Record (Wikimedia Commons, Archaeological Museum of Milan)

Wikimedia Commons, read 2026-08-18

A Wikimedia Commons file record photographed at the Archaeological Museum in Milan by Giovanni Dall'Orto in 2003, captioned "The gods Cybele and Adonis from the Parabiago patera (dating from 361/363 AD)", independently confirming the museum and the identification of the plate's enthroned goddess as Cybele. The caption names her companion Adonis where the Wikipedia article names him Attis and gives a narrower date within the article's own disputed range; neither difference touches the identification of Cybele.
