Note 18: — V.—RELIGION AND SUPERSTITION. (Wall-Cases 98-106.)
Reading edition
In Case 98 are two examples (Nos. 86, 87) of a combined lamp and altar, for use in domestic shrines, probably of late Roman date.18 In one of these the basin for libations is supported on a pine-cone. Akin to these is the small limestone cone and altar from the Cyrenaica.
