HGW07 Pompeii. Herculaneum Gate West Side. Thermopolium (Kockel) or Shop (Eschebach).

(Eschebach West 7, Kockel Süd 7).

 

HGW06 and HGW07 Pompeii. May 2006. Looking west. According to Spano, found immediately to the left of the shop numbered 7, was a large block of material. This was found during a small excavation in the area. This large square mass of material contained a large circular basin, open above. This must have collected in the rain water which flowed from the high part of the Villa of Cicero. This basin, which had already been drawn by Mazois, was only entirely emptied of its eruptive material by this excavation. Finished with sturdy opus signinum, it was formed by an empty cylinder (1.90m deep, and 2.65m wide). The base was rather concave, and in it (to the south-east) was a distribution channel for the water. See Spano in Notizie degli Scavi, 1910, p.268-9.

This must have collected in the rain water which flowed from the high part of the Villa of Cicero, at the rear.
