By the Gods!

 Carla Calò as Yalis the Oracle in TRIUMPH OF MACISTE (1961)

Carla Calò died on December 29 at the age of 93. She appeared in over 80 movies, mainly as a supporting actress. I won't do a full list of her career. Her role as Yalis is my favourite of all her roles. She's sympathetic and important to Maciste's attempts to overthrow the evil ruler, Queen Tenefi. She was often credited as Carol Brown. Her other notable roles: the gypsy in REVENGE OF THE CONQUERED (1961), CAESAR THE CONQUEROR (1962), and ALI BABA & THE SEVE SARACENS (1964). R.I.P..
