Triumphator

As a triumphator, he also had numerous statues in Rome, one of which was on the forum of Augustus.

In the 5th century BC, the triumphator Camillus was sent into exile after he drove a chariot with a team of four white horses ( quadriga )—an honour reserved for Jupiter himself.

Some scholars have viewed the triumphator as embodying (or impersonating) Jupiter in the triumphal procession.

The ornamentation of an arch was intended to serve as a constant visual reminder of the triumph and triumphator.

The very few accounts are from the Imperial era of a public slave (or other figure) who stands behind or near the triumphator to remind him that he "is but mortal" or prompts him to "look behind", and are open to a variety of interpretations.
