Audioguide by eArs 6. Room 5 - The SacellumThis room houses the elements discovered in the sacellum of the Sanctuary of St. Hippolytus, the part of the sacred complex where the statue of the deity was likely kept and where the main rites were performed.Inside, altars, votive cippi, and small but valuable artifacts were uncovered. Among these, the head of Dionysus in display case 26 is particularly noteworthy, depicting the god of wine in an elaborate half-bust with slightly caricatured features.The terracotta legs in the reconstructed sacellum likely belonged to one of the deity statues that would have been housed there.Of significant interest is the stone epigraph dedicated to the god Fons, a deity embodying the spring that provided the water used in the sanctuary's rituals.
