The Temple of Sulis Minerva was a Roman temple dedicated to Sulis Minerva in London.
In 873, the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir met the city reeve Erke Bodilsson at the docks in front of the temple to discuss the Order of the Ancients member known as "The Leech".[1]
Later on, Eivor returned to the temple, killing the soldiers within and recovering a nickel ingot from a chest in a room.[2]
