Description:

Located in the east wall of the in an oecus, next to the summer triclinium (on the lowest garden level) was a niche with an aedicula façade. The façade consisted of two columns and a marble top. However, the exact location of this cult space is uncertain as its existence is only mentioned by one scholar (Giacobello) and there are no images of such a shrine available.
