Designed like a temple in miniature with Corinthian pilasters, with an altar decorated with a naked youth flanked by a pair of lions, and a female bust in the pediment, this would have stood in a wealthy Roman house or garden. From the time of Augustus onwards every Roman household would have had a lararium for the lar familiaris, the household deity that protected the members of the family, ensuring their health and prosperity, as well as other gods favoured by the family.
