New Discoveries Revealed in Pompeii: The Luxury of Private Baths at Regio IX

What the Archaeological Park of Pompeii tells us is that from the regio IX, whose results are now presented on a regular basis - and this is a great thing despite what some may think - a large thermal complex has been highlighted, one of those that are certainly not lacking in Pompeii but which - in this case - is particularly large to be inside a private domus, therefore not public baths. The insula is the one from which the news of the last few years has arrived, cleverly divided into installments to better appear in the media, always hungry for Pompeii news. The only possible comparisons, the park management tells us in the communication, are those of the Praedia of Iulia Felix, the House of the Labyrinth and the Villa of Diomedes. They explain to us that the thermal spaces are directly connected to the large convivial hall, which a few months ago was presented as the so-called “black hall” Therefore a great display of refinement and economic power towards the clientes of the rich family that owned this luxurious domus, as underlined by the director Gabriel Zuchtriegel Therefore we have, as per the textbook, the calidarium, tepidarium, frigidarium (and changing room (apodyterium), for about thirty people, believe the archaeologists who excavated the rooms. The frigidarium is structured around a peristyle, a portico with a 10 x 10 meter pool. The walls are decorated in the Second and Third Style Anna Onesti, who directed the fieldwork, underlines that “The excavation of the rooms in question, and in particular of the peristyle, made use of “an innovative method of execution, which made it possible to reach the floor level avoiding the dismantling of the unstable architectural elements of the colonnade”. In short, they kept them in place, well propped up, highlighting the fact that: “all the wall portions remained in place until a new, future, architectural and structural restoration project” You can see an atrium with a large peristyle, not yet excavated, with various rooms. This is how they were arranged, always according to what the Archaeological Park always tells us: a large oecus (living room) decorated in the 2nd style, a corridor, a small room decorated in the 4th style and a Corinthian oecus, surrounded by at least 12 columns on three sides, with a 2nd style megalograph that is currently still in progress – that is, the frieze with still life compositions that we present to you among the videos suggested here
