It dates back to the third century AD. In Roman domestic or residential construction, nymphaea were rooms generally overlooking the garden-peristyle, intended for banquets and characterised by a mosaic aedicule from which water flowed. The Lucchina Nymphaeum may have been a dependency of a nearby Roman villa discovered on the Colonna estate.
