The Olla covered with a lizard, a snake, a turtle and a bunch of grapes is a sacred text for images related to the cult and ritual practice of Dionysus and Sabatius.

The snake is the guardian of the sacred part, the tortoise represents the way between heaven and earth and the lizard is the mystery of man’s destiny. Anafriis Kerriiuis is the Samnite goddess of rain.
