Hearst Museum object titled Plaster cast, accession number 21-21, described as Cast of an apotheosis  of Herakles (Latin: Hercules), representing the hero and 5 deities advancing to left: Demeter, Apollo, Athena, Ares, and Poseidon (Latin: Ceres, Apollo, Minerva, Mars and Neptune), Terracotta.  No original for this relief has been traced.  Its model is the Capitoline well kerb.  A kindred relief in Munich is a forgery by Monti.  So, probably, is this.  There are 12 gods, in groups of six.  Several suspicious points.
