According to Warscher – this house may have served as a workshop.
Against the west wall of the peristyle-like room entered directly from the street, stands a shrine;
above a low podium (1.10 x 0.70, height 0.40) two enclosing walls (height as far as preserved 1.30) built against the wall of the room form a rectangular niche (w.0.60, d. 0.50). The floor is not preserved. The inside walls are painted with blue with red borders.
On the ground in front of the shrine stands a square masonry altar.
