Pompei Archiological site near Naples in Italy is a must visit place for all Archiology ehnthusiastics.

It’s better to have some understanding by researching and reading on the internet before you visit this place. This way you will know what to expect and the timeline of happenings. This will help you understand and appreciate the efforts taken by the Archiological department in excavating and maintaining the site.

An early start is advisable as it gets hotter in the afternoon. Wear sensible shoes and hat. Always good to carry a bottle of water even though many restaurants have been set up inside.

If you are traveling on a budget, then you may avoid the service of...

A Casa do Fauno de Pompéia se constitui nas ruínas de uma impressionante casa Romana construída durante o século II a.C., é uma das mais luxuosas casas aristocráticas Romanas e reflete este período, melhor do que qualquer outra evidência arqueológica encontrada, inclusive na própria Roma antiga e é conhecida por abrigar impressionantes obras de arte. A Casa do Fauno foi erguida no segundo século antes de Cristo, entre 200 - 80 a.C. e ficou comprovado que após o terremoto de 62 d.C., a Casa do Fauno começou a ser reconstruída e restaurada e também que foi usada como residência do século II a.C. até 79 d.C. quando foi completamente soterrada pela erupção do Vesúvio e embora a erupção tenha sido devastadora, as camadas de cinza que soterraram a cidade, preservaram as obras de arte e os belos mosaicos da Casa, obras que sem esse advento certamente teriam sido destruídas ou se deteriorado com a passagem do tempo. É um dos locais mais visitados do Sítio Arqueológico de Pompéia e recebeu este nome por causa da existência no local de uma estátua de bronze que representa um fauno dançarino, o local impressiona pela sua imensidão e ocupa um quarteirão inteiro, com cerca de 3.500 metros quadrados, tamanho comparável ao palácios helenistas orientais, pois o local foi projetado de forma a ser similar a um antigo palácio encontrado em Delos. O local também é conhecida por abrigar mosaicos luxuosos que cobriam o chão, como o famoso Mosaico de Alexandre, que descreve a batalha de Isso em 333 a.C. ocorrida entre Alexandre, o Grande e Dario III e que foi inspirado em uma pintura grega datada do século IV a.C., obra do artista grego Filoxeno de Erétria, além de vários outros, com cenas de máscaras teatrais, a figura do Fauno com a Ninfa e o mosaico de peixe. A estátua do Fauno que hoje é vista nas ruínas é uma cópia, pois a original está no Museu Arqueológico de Nápoles, juntamente com os mosaicos originais de Alexander, o gato e galinha, a Dove Mosaic e a Tiger...

Così chiamata per la statua di un fauno danzante che si trova nel giardino. È una delle dimore più grandi e lussuose di Pompei, con una vasta area di circa 3.000 metri quadrati. La casa è rinomata per i suoi affreschi e mosaici ben conservati, che offrono un'importante testimonianza dell'arte e dell'architettura romana dell'epoca.
