Altar with niche. Sandstone. Reconstructed from two pieces. However, a large part is missing at the top right. From a shell-shaped decoration at the top of the niche a part remains left. The statue of the goddess Nehalennia is missing. A fruit basket on her left is completely intact, but above that everything has disappeared. The goddess is seated on a seat with a high backrest without armrests. The shoulder jacket is scalloped at the bottom and seems to be held together by a large rectangular fibula. For the rest, her clothing is as usual. Both hands are gone. On the left knee she holds a large object, of which despite the damage it can be observed that this could have been a fruit bowl. Wat, altar, stone, sandstone, 77 x 51 x 18 cm, 95 kg, roman 150-250, the Netherlands, Zeeland, Noord-Beveland, Colijnsplaat, Oosterschelde
