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.

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

Archaeologists Discover 2 New Skeletons At Pompeii

Archaeologists have discovered two skeletons in Pompeii, Italy on May 16, 2023 that they believe were men who died when a wall collapsed on them during the powerful earthquakes that accompanied the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD79. The skeletons were discovered at the excavation site known as the Insula dei Casti Amanti (Insula of the Chaste Lovers). According to Gabriel Zuchtriegel (Right), the Director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park, the two were men working in an area that was not a luxurious part of Pompeii, possibly involved in building projects using plaster and amphorae filled with water. He said that the bones show various fractures and are mixed with pieces of the wall that crumbled on them.
