IV.2.g Pompeii. Steps to upper floor.

Excavated 1841-3 and 1903.

 

All the doorways on the northern side of Via Nola, forming Regio IV, have been filled in as a wall to keep the earth bank back from the road.

It is very difficult to find the exact position of these doorways and link them to any site plan.

Liselotte Eschebach has numbered these houses from IV.2.1 to IV.2.7. Our numbering is IV.2.a to IV.2.g, as in CTP IIIA.

See Eschebach, L., 1993. Gebäudeverzeichnis und Stadtplan der antiken Stadt Pompeji. Köln: Böhlau.

 

IV.2.g Pompeii. March 2009. Entrance to steps to upper floor. (centre). According to Sogliano, found on January 5th 1903, in the soil in front of these two entrances (IV.2.f and g) – an imperial sestertius and a bronze rectangular seal, (see description at IV.2.f). The threshold of the doorway to the steps to the upper floor was of wood, which would have been burnt. Only the remains of carbon were found, as recorded in the Giorn. dei soprastanti. The walls were coated with rough plaster, the east wall showed the line of wooden stairs to the above rooms. See Notizie degli Scavi di Antichità, 1905 (p.279).
