VII.7.10 Pompeii. May 2018. Looking across peristyle, from south portico. Photo courtesy of Buzz Ferebee. According to Jashemski, the garden at the rear of the tablinum (excavated in 1872) had a portico on the north, east and south. It was supported by five columns, all fluted, red on the bottom, white on the top. There was a gutter around the edges of the garden. A garden painting decorated the west and north walls of the portico. See Jashemski, W. F., 1993. The Gardens of Pompeii, Volume II: Appendices. New York: Caratzas. (p.186, and p.363 no.78)

VII.7.10 Pompeii, from rear entrance at VII.7.13. Looking towards west wall, with doorway to kitchen area. According to Hobson, in 1900 the excavation of four latrines by Sogliano was recorded in the Notizie di Scavi. These all drained into cesspits of varying depths, the latrine at VII.7.10 resembled a cistern, lined with plaster, with a mouth 0.60m in diameter, and a bell-shaped expansion below ground to a depth of 5.3m. This cesspit also had a branch at the bottom turning south towards Via Marina. The content of the cesspit was volcanic debris. See Hobson, B., 2009. Latrinae et foricae: Toilets in the Roman World. London; Duckworth. (p.156)
