摘要：We studied an aequipondium or counterweight balance in bronze with figurative representation of a female divinity. He appeared in front of Tarragona port and is preserved in the collection of the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona (MNAT). We emphasize its exceptional weight of 38 kg, the largest, far ahead of all aequipondia hitherto known in the Roman world. Statera belong to a giant or balance arm. This scale would necessarily be mounted on a large frame or machina , capable of weighing huge loads of up to 1500 kg or more. By place of discovery and its high artistic and technical qualities propose relate to public balance ( ponderarium or sacomarium ) of roman port. The female divinity represented should be an image of Aequitas , Equity, numen protector of fair dealing in the weights and measures of the markets.
