Our study attempts to record and examine all the material, with a specific insistence on religious dedications. The texts are here revised and briefly discussed, allowing us to draw out different epigraphic and iconographic indications, which prevent us, as yet, from giving up the conventional thesis of a dedication of the sanctuary to the worship of Liber Pater. |
