VI.11.10 Pompeii. October 2017. East side of atrium between doorways to rooms 32 and 30, remains of arca or strongbox. Foto Annette Haug, ERC Grant 681269 DÉCOR According to PPM – “Base of the strongbox (arca), empty when found on October 25 1834, but in a relatively good state of conservation: “Wooden box lined with iron and garnished with meanders of various designs made with heads of bronze nails". (Bonnucci 1835, p.127). Left in situ, the arca has progressively disappeared down to the base.” See Carratelli, G. P., 1990-2003. Pompei: Pitture e Mosaici. V. (5).

VI.11.10 Pompeii. Chest base against east wall of atrium. According to Pernice – A lava block is attached to three corners of the base, and a travertine block to the fourth. The space between these blocks is filled with tuff and crumb rocks. There is no evidence of a fastening spike. See Pernice, E., 1932.
