During the excavation of the summer triclinium of the Roman Villa of San Vincenzino (open to the public), a precious golden alabaster statuette was found \u2013 perhaps extracted from an Algerian quarry \u2013 of the Egyptian goddess Isis. Characteristic of the image of the goddess is the typical \u201cIsiac knot\u201d, the bow that gathers the edges of the cloak on the chest. The forearms and head, fixed with small iron pins, were made of a different material, perhaps a white marble. The presence of the statuette in the villa is explained by the great success enjoyed by the cult of Isis in Rome, particularly in the imperial age and among the aristocratic classes.<\/p>\n

In the display cases on the right there are finds that come from the excavations of the Roman villa of San Vincenzino, from the Roman necropolises in the surroundings of Cecina and from the Mazzanta production district.<\/p>\n

In particular in the finds from the Roman Villa of San Vincenzino one can observe a small monetary treasure (5th century AD) found in the spa of the villa, a lamp with the monogram of Christ. The long objects is a lead tube coming from the waterworks of the villa.<\/p>\n
