Abstract
A residential and craft area of the roman period was found during the excavations of the Parking Jean-Jaurès in Nîmes (2006-2007, director Jean‑Y ves Breuil, INRAP). The new datas give a context to ancient discoveries like a female statue identified as Bona Dea. This statue could belong to a private worship, located in this area. A second statue found out the limits of the roman town could be attached to a public worship. These two statues and altars from Glanum, Arles and Apt are the only known references to the deity in Gallia Narbonensis. They are evidences of the modes of introduction and spreading of this worship came from Latium.
