T11 Pompeii. Tower XI. Torre di Mercurio.

 

Part 1      Part 2      Towers plan

 

According to Van der Graaff –

“Today, the twelve towers built into the Pompeian circuit are in ruins, their tall structures toppled during the earthquake of the 60s CE and the eruption of Vesuvius…………………..

Each tower consisted of three floors supported by barrel vaults and interconnected by means of rear internal stairways. A door in the back provided access to the city side, and one on either flank opened on the wall-walk. A small postern in the ground floor usually opened onto the exterior side of the defences.”

See Van der Graaff, I. (2018). The Fortifications of Pompeii and Ancient Italy. Routledge, (p.71/2). (See p.71-81 – The Towers).

On page 74 of his book, Van der Graaff points out the differences in the towers and divides them into four types –
“Group One. This includes Towers X, XI and XII.
They feature an entrance on the rear right side of the building opening up on two sets of stairs: one heads straight down to the first floor, the other ascends to the second floor on the left. This setup allows for the presence of arrow slits at the corner of the staircases. The first floor is a wide-open barrel vaulted chamber. A door in the back opens on a rear corridor heading to the postern placed on the right side of the building. On the second floor, two doors opened onto the wall-walk, whereas another staircase in the back gave access to the top third floor.”

According to Van der Graaff –
“The remains of two early gates have emerged: one sealed beneath Tower XI and the other at the current Porta Vesuvio. 
The Via di Mercurio, which has a dead end on the tower, may be an urban fossil of what was once a main artery to the Forum.” 
See Van der Graaff, I. (2018). The Fortifications of Pompeii and Ancient Italy. Routledge, (p.32 and Note 34).

According to Van der Graaff -
The postern and the stairs heading down to the main chamber of Tower XI was walled up in antiquity in a similar fashion to Tower VIII, but it remains unclear when or why this happened.
