During the 2002-2024 excavation campaigns we made numerous discoveries, such as fragments of sculptures and pedestals with inscriptions, including some dedicated by Gaius Grattio Nigrino, Lucio Valerio Proculo, and Lucio Fulvio Crassus. A fragment of a bronze torch uncovered in 2022 can be attributed to the goddess Ceres, a divinity whose statue would stand out among the figures of the local elites and the imperial family in this part of the forum. Numerous decorative architectural elements also appeared, such as fragments of Corinthian bases, columns, and capitals from the time of Augustus. Small bronze pieces have also been found, such as a writing stylus, a bowl used to fill lamps with oil, a piece of a small sculpture of the birth of Venus, rings, bracelets, hair pins, and game chips.
