VI.11.12 Pompeii. September 2005.

Looking across area of garden to tablinum, and east across atrium to entrance doorway.

On the left would have been the triclinium, with a window overlooking the garden.

According to Jashemski, the garden at the rear of the house (excavated in 1842) was entered through an unroofed passageway at the rear of the tablinum.

VI.11.12 Pompeii. September 2005. Looking south towards south-west corner, along wide corridor of garden. The wall on the south side would join to VI.11.10 and the wall on the west (right) would join to VI.11.8. According to Garcia y Garcia, the same bomb that destroyed VI.11.8 also caused the destruction of several rustic rooms in the south of house VI.11.12. These would have had their dividing walls to the south with VI.11.10, and to the west with VI.11.8. In the 1980’s he said, all the fallen structures were in total ruin and abandoned.

Apart from these rooms it also had a long recess, at the back of which was the hearth and the latrine. See Pappalardo, U., 2001. La Descrizione di Pompei per Giuseppe Fiorelli (1875).
