    General description

    Parts of the floor have been preserved at the west and east end of the back room and in the east part of the passage between the front and back room. In the south-east corner of the back room is a wide black band, separating the room from statio 28. It runs north-south, continues east-west, and then again north-south in the passage. On the inside it is followed by a narrow black band, running north-south and continuing east-west on both sides. Both bands are part of a frame.

    In the east part of the passage a geometric design of black shields has been preserved. In the west part of the back room are two different geometric designs. Both continue slightly in the area of statio 30, and both were restored in antiquity. The north-western one consists of white squares with curved sides, the one to the south and east of it has white circles and squares.

    Masonry

    The ends of the back wall consist of big piers of opus vittatum simplex. From behind the western pier emerges a stretch of opus latericium, showing the core of the wall on the south side. There are no side walls.


    Interpretation

    Statio 29 and at least the east part of statio 30 formed an entity.
