A short walk from the Villa of Horace in Licenza is the Orsini "nymph" a semicircular feature with a diameter of 23 meters.
Probably the ancient source Bandusia mentioned by Horace was in here. It was built in the fifteenth century, excavated from a part of the hill.
The water flows from three meters high by an interesting architectural backdrop, with columns at the sides, and flows with a pretty waterfall into a semicircular basin.
In front of the nymph are barely visible remains of a small circular pool that presupposes a similar monument from Roman times.
