Yes, sort of.

Janus was the god of beginnings and endings and his temple had two doors. When Rome was at war the doors were open and when at peace the doors were closed.

The doors were rarely closed.

Leave it to Min to point out that I need to unstick my nose from Celtic mythology and brush back on Greek and Roman.
