The ruins of a small building (possibly first century AD) with a shrine, in the archaeological site of Sidi Khiribech, in Berenike. According to some archaeologists, it might have been connected to the adjacent Area A, and constitute together a single unit. In other interpretations, it is an independent sacred space.
