✅ It was not different from our farms. It had a central courtyard with a columned portico onto which the rooms for the production of wine opened. In two of them the torcularium was placed, that is the press for pressing the grapes, where a herm of Dionysus, the god linked to wine, was found.

✅ Opposite was the storage room for wine cell, with eighteen large buried jars (the dolia), in which the wine was stored. Some of them still have the lid and the trademark. Outside the wine cell was the calcatorium, a threshing floor where the grapes were pressed with feet before passing them to the wine press. Some vines have been planted in the surrounding area to reconstruct the ancient agricultural landscape.

✅ The house was modest, but it had a small triclinium, decorated with frescoes, a kitchen, a lararium. The eruption of Vesuvius destroyed it while repair work was underway after the earthquake of 63 AD.

✅ In the Antiquarium, the small museum annexed to the excavations, the agricultural tools are preserved, which are the same ones that we use today: sickles, billhooks, vases and shovels. There also is a carbonized bread and the cast of a poor dog killed by the eruption.
