The building identified as a temple is in reality the place of worship in the Sanctuary of the Fontaine
« ad Parthenium quoddam sacrum pervenitur, de la Fontaine dictum, ubi prius Dianæ Templum fuit : quod propter murorum antiquitatem, in quibus nulla calcis commissura aut coagmentatio : propterque columnarum excavatarum positum & Idolorum tensas : foraminum item, per quæ fumus sacrificiorum exiit : locorum quoque quibus victimæ cædebantur, & sanguine parietes imbuebantur, spectatu dignum est. »
