According to PAH,
in the Giornale degli Scavi 1763-1790 of Francesco La Vega this was the “Casa
pseudurbana poco distante dalla Porta della città, e relativamente alla stessa
città verso occidente *. Resta tal fabbrica nel podere del Monastero de'PP.
Celestini della Torre dell'Annunziata, censito ad Ignazio Russo, altramente
Balzano”.
Questa casa vien
detta volgarmente villa di Cicerone. Fu scavata e poi ricoperta. Veggansi i
rapporti dell'Alcubierre sugli scavi della Civita in gennaio 1749.
