    • Mentioned in the Regionary Catalogue as situated in the V Augustan Region, nothing remains of the temple of Minerva. It is generally placed in relationship to a votive deposit discovered in an underground gallery in via Carlo Botta, comprising terracotta artefacts characteristic of Etrusco-Italic sanctuaries in the Hellenistic period. A lamp fragment bearing the name Minerva is of particular interest for the identification of the temple.
