Sacello dei Quattro dei. Shrine of the four gods.
Restored after the earthquake in 62 A.D., the temple is dedicated to four divinities, as evidenced by the lovely archaistic reliefs, perhaps from the Augustan period (27 B.C-.14 A.D.), recently found and originally fastened to the front side of the podium standing at the back of the cell.

These depict Minerva, Neptune, Mercury and Vulcan, all divinities related to the world of manufacture, trade and crafts.

The floor of the pronaos (vestibule) and the Corinthian columns store are made of cipollino marble; the cell floor is in opus sectile.

Part of the wooden structure of the roof was recently recovered, dragged onto the beach below by the force of the eruption.

This is a replica of the artifact in the Museum
