Description: This long rectangular building in region III ii 1-2 is entered from the main street (the Decumanus) through a corridor, which leads into a courtyard with a portico. At the far side of the courtyard is a raised temple accessed by marble steps (see photo in figure 30). A smaller portico courtyard lies behind the temple, and likely accommodated association meetings and banquets. There is a mosaic of a ship in the front entrance hall and a statue base with a dedication to the patron of the ship builders, along with part of a membership list (album) were found in the temple.
