VIII.7.16
Pompeii. c.1907-1908. Photograph titled “Attuale entrata dal ludo
gladiatorio”.
Looking north towards entrance doorway into small room at exterior south-east corner of Gladiator’s Barracks.
This would have been an original entry to excavations of Pompeii.
According to Sogliano –
“………..and the very petty and inconvenient entry into Pompeii, made a few years ago, from a narrow corner of the Ludo Gladiatorium. I will take care of this last filthy situation immediately, transferring the entrance to the Porta di Stabia, in the same way as one accesses the excavations by the Porta Marina and the Porta Nola.”

(1908). Dei lavori eseguiti in Pompei dal 1 Aprile 1907 a tutto Giugno 1908.
