V.1.25 Pompeii. May 2005. Entrance, looking east.

Graffito found on the pilaster to the north (left) of the entrance, according to Della Corte proving this was the shop of Felicio, read:

L(ucium)  C(eium)  S(ecundum)  II vir(um)

Felicio  lupinarius

rog (at)      [CIL IV 3423]

He thought the shop would have sold lupins or vegetables, herbs and plants in general.

Opposite, on the front of the fullonica of Vesonius (see VI.14.21/22), was another graffito for the same person:

Felicio lupinipolus rog (at)  [CIL IV 3483]
