"Parte inferiore di un fusto di candelabro a guisa di tronco di palma uscente da un nascimento di foglie d'acanto; nel plinto in tre lati la inscrizione" (Lan- ciani in BAM 1875,248).
In the room left to the entrance of the Mithraeum, there is a well, from which water runs through a pipe, which penetrates the wall and empties in a square basin.
In the irregular room opposite the sanctuary, the so-called Dominicum Clementis, a marble statuette, representing a bearded person as the good Shepherd was found.
Two fragments of a marble frieze (L. 0.52 and 0.78 H. 0.30), one found in 1890 in the outer porticus of the Theatre, and the other found in 1938 near the Mithraeum.
