 The temple was discovered during excavations in 1888 within what appeared to be a large house near to the centre of the Roman city.Due to the size of the house and the importance of its location it must have belonged to an important individual and this must certainly be the decurion Marcus Antonius Victorinus who dedicated a number of small altars within the sanctuary.The shrine was orientated north to south and measured 7m wide by 15.03m long.
