According to Della Corte, it was a modest shop with rear and upstairs rooms, although its use was unknown.

He thought the owner of it was [Verec]un(d)us, as attested by the recommendation written to the left of the entrance  door:                          

L(ucium) Ceium Secundu(m)

II v(irum) i(ure) d(icundo)

[...]unus rog(at)     [CIL IV 3369]
