In the Roman ruins of Banias, a national park and archaeological site in northern Israel, the cliffside is lined with shrines to various deities. This model depicts that of Nemesis.
Note the Greek Inscription above the shrine:
“For the preservation of our lords the emperors, Valerios [Titi]anos, priest of god Pan, dedicated to the lady Nemesis and her Shrine which was made by cutting away the rock underneath… with the iron fence in the month of Apellaios.”
