Janus

Janus is the god of beginnings and transitions, thence also of gates, doors, passages, endings and time. He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past. The Romans named the month of January in his honour.

This is one side of his face taken at Pewterspear, Appleton, Warrington.
