Three matching fragments of an altar. Limestone. A is the lower part, B a part of the right side, C the upper left corner. The front is complete, the rear is for a large part broken away. The upper right part is missing. There is a role on the corner of the mensa. The mensa runs diagonally to the middle. A cornucopiae has stood on both sides. In both cases, a hanging leaf is visible at about half-height, and above it there are three incised horizontal grooves. The top of the horn on the left is formed by a thick, forward-spreading edge. A large fruit (pear?) And a piece of a second fruit are

A large fruit (pear?) And a piece of a second fruit are still visible.
