A smaller sacred site dedicated to Persephone, associated with the cycles of life and death, located near fertile agricultural lands. The shrine connects Rhegium’s agricultural wealth to its spiritual life, ensuring bountiful harvests and communal well-being. Its significance is heightened during the Third Samnite War, as the agricultural stability supported the city’s population and its ability to maintain trade networks and alliances.
