IV.5.a Pompeii. Shop with dwelling. Excavated 1813.

All the doorways on the northern side of Via Nola, forming Regio IV, have been filled in as a wall to keep the earth bank back from the road.

It is very difficult to find the exact position of these doorways and link them to any site plan.

Our numbering is IV.5.a to IV.5.d, in a west to east direction based on the Hans Eschebach plan of 1969.

CTP IIIA numbers the opposite way from east to west as IV.5.a to d.

Liselotte Eschebach has numbered these houses from west to east as IV.5.1 to IV.5.4.
