In Roman mythology, Securitas was the goddess of security. And stability, especially the security of the Roman Empire. On coinage Securitas was usually depicted leaning on a column.
On Sardinia during the Roman imperial period, "a Latin inscription described the tomb of Titus Vinius as a shrine of Securitas."
