More than 200 meters (about 650 feet) underground, in a chamber where water collects in natural basins of mineral rock, Romans left the largest collection of Latin cave inscriptions known anywhere in their empire. Researchers announced in October that the inscriptions show a goddess called Domina, "the Lady," was worshipped there, and that women played an active role in her cult.
