New on pompeiiinpictures this month

Thanks to the hard work of Drew Baker with assistance from his colleagues Hembo Pagi and Gareth Beale, for which we are extremely pleased and grateful, we have now added extensive coverage of the whole of insula I.1, insula I.5 and insula VIII.7.

I.1.1 to I.1.10

I.5.1 to I.5.3

VIII.7.1 to VIII.7.15

VIII.7.16

VIII.7.20 to VIII.7.27

There have also been major updates to

VI.9.2 Casa del Meleagro or House of Meleager. This now has an interactive plan giving access to the page for each room separately.

VI.15.8 Casa del Principe di Napoli or House of the Prince of Naples.

VI.16.7 Casa degli Amorini Dorati or House of the Golden Cupids. This now has an interactive plan giving access to the page for each room separately.

The Porta Nocera tombs have been completely revised and renumbered with additional material in line with D'Ambrosio and De Caro, Un Impegno per Pompei, 1983. The north-west side now includes photographs of the body casts found in 1956-7. Our grateful thanks to Rick Bauer for providing these.

134 other pages have had smaller updates, with extra pictures, old photos, old paintings or Latin inscriptions added. The size of the pictures on all updated pages has been increased for better viewing.

All these and the rest of Pompeii can be seen at www.pompeiiinpictures.com
