The city of Delphi.
The Romans adopted the Greek's use of realistic features when making human art. Both Greek and Roman human art could be very unforgiving, meaning that every blemish on a human's face was included in a Roman sculpture or painting.
Athena was a city-goddess, and was adopted by many Greek cities, most notably Athens which was named after her, and her temple dominated the acropolis there.
Greece influenced pretty much everything in Rome. Rome was completely, hopelessly, and utterly fascinated by the Greeks. They adopted Greek politics, government, dress, education, a lot of methods of warfare, ship building, trade, architecture, even their Gods, which is kind of wierd that they couldn't even come up with their OWN Gods. Educated Romans were "educated" in Greek, and spoke the language. Rome went as far as to actually taking Greece itself for its own. Rome didn't "conquer" Greece, they INHALED it! At least they picked one of the greatest civilizations on earth to completely copy. GB

Delphi is a Greek city dedicated to Apollo, a son of Zeus.
Delphi
Apollo was a Greek god who was adopted by the Romans. The process started with the acquisition of the Sibylline Books of the oracles of Cumae by Lucius Tarquinius Superbus, the last king of Rome who ruled in the 6th century BC. The Sibylline were Greek oracles who lived in several Greek cities, including Cumae, a Greek city south of Rome, near Naples. The Romans created two priests dedicated to this guariging and interpreting these books, the duumviri sacris faciundis. Later this priesthood was increased to ten (decemviri sacris faciundis) and then to fifteen (quindecimviri sacris faciundis). Apollo was an oracular god; that is, the god of the oracles. Thus the Romans adopted Apollo. The Romans also adopted Asclepius, the son of Apollo and the divinity who mediated medicine and healing, which were associated with Apollo. In Hellenistic times, especially during the 3rd century BC, Apollo became identified among Greeks with Helios, Titan god of the sun, as Apollo Helios (Helios means sun in Greek). Apollo Sol (Sun) appeared in Roman literature in the in the third century AD. Constantine the Great (ruled 306-337) worshipped Apollo Sol and wanted the citizens of the empire to worship him.
