According to Boyce, in this area should have been the lararium, presumably destroyed in 1943.

He described it as being in a house transformed into a workshop.

In the west wall of the atrium, near the south-west corner was a rectangular niche with aedicula façade and projecting floor.

The inside walls were painted blue and the opening of the niche was outlined with red stripes on the white background of the wall of the room.
