Description:
Located in the southeast corner of room 3 was a rectangular podium, believed to have been for an aedicula shrine. The podium was constructed from brick. It was erected on top of the mosaic flooring of the room indicating it was a later addition to the space. Fragments of bricks with evidence of burning have been documented in the vicinity, suggesting that burning of offerings took place in the room.
