IX.9.8 Pompeii. Bar and room.

Linked to dwelling at IX.9.9. Excavated 1887.

 

IX.9.8 Pompeii. May 2010. Looking south-east from Via di Nola towards the counter.

According to Cooley’s translation, CIL IV 3775 was found here, although she does give the location as IX.VII.8.

According to the note in Jashemski, this address is given as IX.vii.8, in Mau, RM (1889), p.30 and pl.1.

However Della Corte describes CIL IV 3775 as coming from the house “opposite the entrance” of the house of Aemilius Celer, which would be IX.8.8

Neighbours beg you to elect Lucius Statius Receptus duumvir with judicial power, a worthy man.

Aemilius Celer wrote this, a neighbour. You jealous one who destroys this, may you fall ill.
