Description:
On the north side of the villa was a cult room. The room had a rectangular plan. During excavation, a group of bronze statuettes was found in the room, which included Fortuna, a Lar, and Mercury, as well as a base for an unknown deity. Six coins were also found in the room, ranging from the Augustan age to the reign of Alexander the Great. Fragments of a lamp and a bronze door knob were also found.
