<jats:p>This paper deals with the occurrence of lead figurines of the goddess Venus
in the area between the two cities of Sirmium and Viminacium. A
classification into five types, based on stylistic and iconographic features,
has been proposed. Although these types show features in common with products
of other workshops in the Danubian basin, it has been observed that such
products were not exchanged among the centres in the area. This paper puts
forward the hypothesis that there were two centres of worship of the goddess
Venus, in Sirmium and Viminacium, where these figurines could have been
manufactured.</jats:p>
