Description:
Located on the east wall of the atrium was a small arched niche. The niche sat 1.88m above the floor, with a heavy stuccoed masonry projecting base. The niche was painted with small spots of green and white paint. The property is not fully excavated and so the shrine's wider context in the property is uncertain.
