IX.9.6 Pompeii. May 2006. Doorway to cubiculum in north-west corner of atrium.
According to NdS, the doorway to this room was made narrower by the addition of a pilaster formed by rows of masonry bricks and tufa cut in a similar style, on its left.
When found, this doorway was furnished with a door, the imprint of which could be seen at the time of excavation, but it could not be saved.
The room had a rough signinum floor, and rustic walls.
In the west wall was a semi-circular niche, plastered entirely in white stucco studded with coloured specks, which could have been flowers.
In this room, some amphorae were found (see NdS, 1887, p.561) containing lime.
In the rustic plaster, on the pilaster between the entrance
corridor and the doorway to the room (right in picture above), graffiti were
found. They read –
IVCVNDVS and QVOIVS
VIINVS LABORE
VITALIS
See Notizie degli Scavi di Antichità, 1889, p.123.
