Garden of Quintus Licinius

Remains of the pond that used to preside over the garden of a house in Baetulo which was built in the late 1^st century AD and probably belonged to Quintus Licinius, a member of a powerful family of patricians and the main player in a hospitality pact established with the residents of Badalona in 98 AD, contained in the tabula hospitalis.
