Description:

In an upper room (Room 18) was a cult space. While the form of the cult space is not certain, its presence is known from cult statuettes found in the room. These included a small bronze statuette of Mercury, a small marble statue of Venus, and a female terracotta figure. The statuettes were found in the centre of the room, perhaps originally placed on the table that was also found in the room.
