| The view as you enter Pompeii, Vesuvio in the background. |
The Basilica. |
From here there's a good view of Vesuvius |
And by the Forum, |
You can see the stored pots and a few casts of victims. |
The Forum |
| One of the many shops, with counters and storage bins. |
The Faun, in the house thereof. |
and a beautiful mosaic of doves, apparently collecting a string of pearls. |
Alexander is on a floor mosaic.. |
One of the many atriums |
and a typical street, with stepping stones over an unsavory sewer path.. |
| Many of the frescos remain, in whole or part. |
In the house of the "ancient haunting" to quote a website. |
The houses are many, though many are closed. |
The pistrinum, or bakery. |
Looking down a typical street. |
Kids get water at a little fountain |
