Erotic Roman Mosaic Stolen By Wehrmacht Officer Returns to Pompeii - Italy

An erotic Ancient Roman mosaic stolen by a Wehrmacht officer in 1944 and given to a German citizen was returned to its rightful home at Pompeii, Italy in a ceremony by Italy's crack art cops on July 15, 2025. The German army captain, responsible for the military supply chain in Italy during World War II, handed over the mosaic of a pair of lovers in an erotic scene to a German citizen whose family have now returned it thanks to the Carabinieri of the Cultural Heritage Protection Unit (TPC) of Rome. The work of great cultural interest dates between the mid-last century BC and the 1st century AD. Repatriated from Germany through a diplomatic expedition, the mosaic most likely decorated the floor of a private room reserved for the master of the house. The work is likely from the Vesuvian area, perhaps from a villa in the Pompeian suburbs.

Biggest Ever Private Bathhouse Found - Pompeii

A large thermal bath complex has been uncovered on January 2025 at the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, Italy, buried by 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Pictured: The frigidarium (cold). The private bathhouse built 2,000 years ago, is decorated with sumptuous mosaics and equipped with a series of hot, warm and cold rooms in the manner of a spa.The find was made during excavations of a domus, a private town house, in block (insula) 10 of the Regio IX area of Pompeii. The complex, which is connected to a banquet hall, is one of the largest and most sophisticated thermal baths found at a Pompeian domus. The baths, composed of a calidarium, tepidarium, frigidarium (hot, warm and cold room) and changing room (apodyterium), could accommodate up to thirty people judging by the benches present in the latter room. The archaeologists said the cold room is very impressive, composed of a peristyle, or a porticoed courtyard measuring 10 x 10 meters, at the center of which is a large pool.

Tiny House With Erotic Frescoes Uncovered - Pompeii

Fresco with the myth of Phaedra and Hippolytus uncovered by Archaeologists in a richly decorated small house with finely preserved erotic frescoes of mythological scenes in the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, Italy on October 2024. The vividly coloured wall paintings include one depicting a sexual encounter between a satyr and a nymph on a bed and another one of Phaedra, mythological queen, and her stepson Hippolytus. Phaedra, Cretan princess and wife of Theseus, fell in love with her stepson Hippolytus through the work of Aphrodite, who avenged the young man’s disdain for her. Hippolytus rejected Phaedra, and she, scorned, falsely accused him of trying to rape her. Another fresco features gods presumed to be Venus and Adonis. Experts say the exquisitely decorated abode, called the House of Phaedra after the mythological queen , sheds light on the changing architectural styles in the first century AD but is also further proof that the residents of Pompeii had an appetite for sensual art.

Carpenter’s Tools Found In A Room In A Villa In Pompeii - Italy

Carpenter’s tools have been discovered in a Roman Villa of the servile neighborhood of Civita Giuliana in the suburb of the ancient city of Pompeii, Italy in May 2024. The room contains a bed, as well as work tools and what appears to be a frame, perhaps of another bed, disassembled: baskets, a long rope, pieces of wood, and a saw with a blade, which does not seem very different from traditional saws used until recently, are also recognized. Even a piece of rope has been identified as an imprint in the ground, which kept it under tension. The room was exceptionally well-preserved and it was possible to make casts of furniture and other objects made of perishable materials: wood, fabrics, ropes. The technique of making casts, systematically experimented with since 1863 with the creation of the first casts of the victims of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, is unique in the world as it is the result of the specific dynamics of the catastrophic event: people or objects dragged and covered by the ‘pyroclastic fl
