“To the right of the doorway, numbered III.1.2, above the last of three rustic plaster layers, the wording of an incomplete and faded programma had come back into light.

The Pompeian nobleman was normally Paquius: however, it had already appeared on other occasions, as here, with the spelling Pacuvius.”
