According to Sogliano, the lararium was similar to the one in IX.2.16, but had vanished entirely. Two Lares with rhyton and situla and in the middle the Genius with cornucopia and patera, sacrificing on the altar.
The tibicen was playing the double flute. Underneath was a single serpent beside an altar with a huge pine cone. See Sogliano, A., 1879. Le pitture murali campane scoverte negli anni 1867-79. Napoli: (p.12).
