A water deity in lateral view, reclining on a tasselled pillow: he is clad in tunic and breeches, wears sandals and has a dagger in his belt. He holds in his right a blade of sedge, his left on the downwards turned jug. Traces of painting: the background is green, with traces of an indiscernible black letter, the garment gold-coloured, the jug red. - Early 2nd century - 187x57x20 cm. -Gorsium, fallen in the basin of the Eastern ornamental fountain. - SzIKM, Inv. no. 66.595.1. FITZ 1965/66, 163; FITZ 1976, 42-43; FITZ 1983, 25-26. Zs.B. 129. Diana bathing The relief, originally part of a sepulchral monument, is one of the finest of the reliefs dealing with the history of Actaeon. Diana dropping on the right knee pours water over herself from the shell held above her head. Behind her two little Amors hold a nicely folded sheet. Actaeon is peeping behind the rocks over the right-side Amor. The stone is damaged at this place but the pedum characteristic for sheperds can be seen clearly and the face is distinct as well. The sculptor filled the left upper comer with Diana's bow and quiver. The work stands pre-eminent among the Pannonian pieces of the same theme. The portrait-like face of Diana is perhaps the likeness of the dead, identified with the goddess. - 3rd century A.D. - 100x112x20 cm. -Dunaújváros (Intercisa), South-East cemetery, grave 815. - IM, Inv. no. 67.2.344.5.

The author gave from the building table only the text of the inscription in a different interpretation as it can be read in the chapter of the catalogue on the area sacra of Gorsium. For the unity of the volume we give here the reading to be published in Vol. VI oîRIU. The reading of the author is as follows. [Imperat] ORES L(ucius) [---] [Sept.
