Syria, an annual journal, has been published uninterruptedly since 1920 by the French Institute of the Near East (Amman, Beirut, Damascus, Aleppo). The review is dedicated to the history and archaelogy of the Semitic Near East (Cyprus included) from Prehistory to the Islamic conquest. It publishes articles in all the disciplines related to this field of research, archaology, epigraphy, philology, history, art history ; these articles are sometimes gathered together in thematic issues, but usually each issue of Syria tries to give - by means of 12 to 18 articles -, a varied overview of research on the Ancient Near East. The languages in use are French, English, German, Italian, and Spanish. From time to time, the review also publishes topical notes, and normaly devotes in each issue an extensive section to reading notes on books published on the Ancient Near East.
Syria, qui paraît depuis 1920 sans interruption, est publiée par l’Institut Français du Proche-Orient, en une seule livraison annuelle. La revue se consacre à l’histoire et l’archéologie du Proche-Orient sémitique (y compris Chypre) de la préhistoire à la conquête islamique. Elle publie des articles dans toutes les disciplines de ce champ de recherche, archéologie, épigraphie, philologie, histoire, histoire de l’art ; ces articles peuvent être quelquefois regroupés en dossiers thématiques, mais le plus souvent chaque volume tente de donner, à travers 12 à 18 articles, un panorama varié de la recherche au Proche-Orient ancien. Les langues employées sont le français, l’anglais, l’allemand, l’italien et l’espagnol. Tous les articles sont précédés d’un résumé en français, en anglais et en arabe. La revue publie aussi à l’occasion de courtes notes d’actualité, et consacre dans chaque numéro un épais cahier aux recensions d’ouvrages parus sur le Proche-Orient ancien.

Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum II
LOGO DEL CENTRO
CENTRO CIL II
Instalado en la Universidad de Alcalá desde el año 1997 por un convenio con el Instituto Arqueológico Alemán, el Centro CIL II coordina los trabajos de la nueva edición del volumen de Hispania del Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum (CIL II2) y es una de las tres sedes de redacción. Para ello se recogen de forma sistemática todas las informaciones bibliográficas sobre inscripciones antiguas latinas, tanto impresas como manuscritas, que forman la base del Fichero Central de la Institución, el cual en la actualidad contiene documentación sobre unas 22.000 inscripciones.

Estos fondos están a disposición de los investigadores que pueden consultarlos poniéndose en contacto con el Centro en la siguiente dirección electrónica o por teléfono:

imagen para marcar titulo secundario Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum II2
De la nueva edición del Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, vol. II: Inscriptiones Hispaniae Latinae (CIL II2), coordinada por Armin U. Stylow, se han publicado hasta la fecha tres tomos, correspondientes a los Conventus Astigitanus (CIL II2/5; 1998), Cordubensis (CIL II2/7; 1995) y Tarraconensis Sur (CIL II2/14 fasc. 1; 1995) respectivamente. Razones económicas no permitieron incluir, en forma de láminas o de figuras de texto, toda la documentación gráfica existente, sino sólo una selección escueta de las piezas más representativas y más significativas. Gracias a diversas ayudas del Ministerio de Educación y Cultura ha sido posible remediar esa carencia a través de esta página Web. Ofrecemos en ella de momento la documentación gráfica que poseemos sobre las inscripciones publicadas en los tres tomos mencionados esperando poder añadir en un futuro próximo las imágenes correspondientes a otras zonas. Además de la imagen se puede acceder al texto de la inscripción en cuestión archivado en el Banco de Datos Epigráfico de la Academia de Ciencias de Heidelberg (EDH; http://www.uni-heidelberg.de/institute/sonst/adw/edh/), creado bajo la dirección del prof. Géza Alföldy, donde también se pueden consultar los textos de las inscripciones perdidas que carecen de documentación gráfica.

imagen para marcar titulo secundario Proyectos Comunidad de  Madrid
Gracias a diversas ayudas de la Comunidad de Madrid y de la Universidad de Alcalá el Centro CIL II está realizando un repertorio básico del patrimonio epigráfico de la Comunidad de Madrid tanto de las inscripciones antiguas latinas halladas en su territorio como las que albergan diversas instituciones y colecciones afincadas en ella. Al mismo tiempo se elabora un diccionario de personajes que se ocuparon de la Epigrafía y la Arqueología de la Península haciendo hincapié en sus aportaciones en estos campos y con particular atención a la Comunidad de Madrid  y a la Universidad de Alcalá. Como novedad abrimos un apartado dedicado a fuentes documentales, que iniciamos con los fondos epigráficos y arqueológicos de F. Fita que se conservan en el Archivo Provincial Histórico de Toledo de la Compañía de Jesús (APHTCJ) en Alcalá de Henares.

MANQUSO: Gacetilla de Estudios Epigráficos y Numismáticos Andalusíes

La Plaza Mayor de Madrid alberga, desde hace muchos años, una tertulia de numismática hispano arábigas. Más que una tertulia es un verdadero taller de estudios numismáticos andalusíes, que ha contado con ilustres representantes, como Sáez Díez, Orol Pernas, Rodríguez Lorente y Medina, ya desaparecidos, pero que han sabido transmitir sus conocimientos en sus publicaciones y en la tertulia, que continúa todavía activa.

Normalmente estos autores, y otros, han publicado los resultados de sus investigaciones en libros y también en revistas especializadas.

Dos componentes actuales de la tertulia consideraron que si bien había publicaciones españolas periódicas sobre numismática, éstas eran generalistas sobre todos los campos de la numismática, su periodicidad era variable, y en general tenían el defecto de que la calidad de las representaciones gráficas no era la adecuada, pues en la mayoría de las ocasiones no era factible verificar sobre las mismas las lecturas de las leyendas.

Decididos a mejorar esta situación idearon la forma de editar una gacetilla digital sobre moneda andalusí, aunque abierta a otros campos epigráficos (amuletos, precintos, etc.) y zonas geográficas, no siempre fácilmente diferenciables.

La idea de esta Revista surgió de una charla durante un viaje a Córdoba y se planteó como un medio rápido de difusión de ideas o de conocimientos que guarden relación con su principal objetivo: Cualquier pieza con escritura que pertenezca al ámbito geográfico y temporal que se ha dado en llamar al-Andalus.

Pero no tenemos ninguna intención de ser restrictivos, por lo que esto debe ser entendido en el sentido más amplio y abierto. De hecho, todo el Norte de África y Sicilia se consideran encuadrados, sin más, dentro de nuestro objetivo, y si surge alguna pieza o tema oriental será acogido con buena disposición.

Somos conscientes que buena parte de los temas a tratar estarán relacionados con las monedas, que son los objetos más abundantes y accesibles conservados de la época, y que hay magníficas Revistas que tratan ya estos temas. No sólo no pretendemos ser su “oposición” sino que continuaremos colaborando con ellas con avidez siempre que tengamos artículos adecuados a su alto nivel.

Esta gacetilla digital tiene las ventajas de una mayor economía de medios que las de papel, aunque el formato en que se presenta permite su impresión, en su difusión y en la calidad de sus imágenes.

Les presentamos, con este número, la nueva gacetilla de estudios epigráficos y de numismática andalusí denominada MANQUSO

 Abydos Temple Paper Archive Project
 
The Abydos Temple Paper Archive Project (ATPA) is an international mission under the auspices of University of California Berkeley and in collaboration with the Ministry of Antiquities, Egypt, with members from several countries, including many Egyptian team members. Thanks to a generous grant from the Antiquities Endowment Fund administered through the American Research Center in Egypt, we are currently working on a recently discovered historical archive containing documents from the Egyptian Antiquities’ Service related to the heritage management of the site of Abydos and surrounding areas, from the second half of the 19th century until the 1950’s. Our focus is to preserve and categorize this historical archive detailing the modern history of the area and its archaeological sites from the Egyptian point of view. Considering the many recent projects that have investigated foreign involvement in early Egyptian archaeology, we believe that the Abydos Temple Paper Archive serves as an important counterpoint that can elucidate the contributions of the many Egyptian archaeologists that took part in early explorations.
We just started our field season, and will be working on the archive until the end of June here in Abydos. In this blog, you will find posts from different team members every week, giving you updates on our ongoing findings. We hope you will take this journey with us, and that you will find the archive as exciting as we do!

EpiDig Zotero Bibliography

Group picture

Digital resources for the discovery, publication, study, and teaching of epigraphy.
EpiDig (for "Epigraphy + Digital")is a collaborative bibliography is managed and published via a shared group on the Zotero.org citation management website. Working under the direction of Tom Elliott, ISAW's Associate Director for Digital Programs, Nicholas Goldrosen conducted a complete review and update of the bibliography. A rising senior at Hunter College High School in New York, Goldrosen first reviewed every existing entry in the bibliography for accuracy and currency against each "live" on-line resource and then collated the contents of the bibliography against a number of other lists to ensure completeness (see further, below). Pages that have disappeared from the web are now tagged for further investigation. In coming months, ISAW and its partners will continue efforts to catalog similar digital resources on the web. A follow-on project will make contact with the authors and publishers of these resources in an effort to assess data management and digital preservation plans for each, with a view toward ensuring long-term availability for ISAW and its affiliates world-wide.

Started by Elliott in 2013, the EpiDig bibliography is now jointly curated by 16 volunteers (listed on the Zotero group page). It takes inspiration and incorporates data from earlier efforts, including:

Elliott has written recently about the facility and use of digital resources for Roman epigraphy in: The Oxford Handbook of Roman Epigraphy, C. Bruun and J. Edmondson (eds.), 2014, pages 78–85 [paywalled digital version].

Cataloguing Greek Inscriptions
One of the main activities of the Greek Epigraphic Society is the identification and recording in a systematic manner and on the basis of the autopsy of the monuments the inscriptions kept in the Museums, the museum storerooms, the archaeological sites and the Ephorates of Antiquities of Greece. This activity is pursued with the permission of and the close collaboration with the Greek Archaeological Service.

In pursuing this work, the Greek Epigraphic Society seeks to contribute to the major project of the evaluation and recording of the epigraphic treasures of Greece and to serve the cause -which constitutes primarily a moral obligation of the Greek state- to preserve and protect the monuments of Greece's past.

    A New Concordance of the Pyramid Texts

    A New Concordance of the Pyramid Texts
    James P. Allen
    THIS CONCORDANCE was prepared as the basis for a new study of the lexicon, orthography, and grammar of the Pyramid Texts. It contains all currently available instances of Pyramid Texts from the pyramids of Unis to those of Pepi II’s queens. Where possible, the texts have been scanned from photographs (Unis) or published facsimiles, each sized to a width of 8.9 mm (0.35 in); I am grateful to Élise Bène for permission to use the facsimiles of Teti’s texts that she prepared for her doctoral dissertation. Where no facsimile was available, I have used the hand copies published by Sethe, sometimes rearranged to avoid excessively large signs or gaps between signs; I have also reversed Sethe’s consistent left-facing lines when the original faces right. The Merenre fragments published in Orientalia are rendered in normalized hieroglyphs. 
    In place of the sequential column numbers used by Sethe and Jéquier for each pyramid, I have used the convention inaugurated by Leclant, where each column is numbered according to its location in the pyramid; for conventions, see the “Occurrences of Pyramid Texts,” below. Parentheses are used to indicate text beginning within a column rather than at the top. 
    The texts are arranged by Sethe’s spell numbers (Sprüche); parentheses indicate a spell that continues over more than one page. I have appended letters in cases where Sethe assigned a single number to what was subsequently revealed to be more than one spell: for example, PT 71A–D. I have also assigned new spell numbers, marked by an asterisk (PT *704–*806), to texts not numbered by Sethe, where these are either substantially preserved or have a known location in the pyramid. In place of Sethe’s paragraph numbers (Pyr.), I have numbered the lines of each spell larger than a single line sequentially, usually corresponding to Sethe’s paragraph numbers; the latter are given in small type below the corresponding sequential number: thus, for example, PT 50.1, corresponding to Sethe’s Pyr. 37b. An asterisk following a sequential number (or Sethe’s Pyr. number, where no sequential number has been assigned) signals a textual note, found on the same page. 
    The texts of each spell are arranged chronologically from left (earliest) to right (latest). For passages with discernible revisions on the wall, the original text is presented in normalized hieroglyphs to the left of the final version, with the column headed by the same siglum plus a prime (Sethe’s älterer Text) or, for instances of two revisions, a double prime (Sethe’s ältester Text): for instance, PT 509.3 (Pyr. 1120c), with Pʺ to the left of Pʹ, to the left of P. In a few cases where Sethe’s publication shows signs not preserved in the facsimile, I have added these in normalized hieroglyphs in a column to the right, headed “Sethe.” 
    I hope that this concordance, and its conventions, will prove useful to scholars of the Pyramid Texts. At a minimum, it combines the two volumes of Sethe, the four of Jéquier, and the one of Leclant’s MAFS, into a single source. In particular, however, I hope it will ease the current confusion in numbering, replacing the quadruple system of Sethe, T.G. Allen, Faulkner, and new MAFS numbers by a single, coherent system. I have decided to abandon Sethe’s Pyr. numbers for three reasons. First, the latter do not immediately reveal to which spell they belong. Second, a system of revised Pyr. numbers, such as that used in my Inflection of the Verb in the Pyramid Texts, becomes unwieldy in cases where a large amount of text has been discovered since Sethe’s publication; an example is PT 698A, to which Sethe assigned Pyr. 2176 but which turns out to have thirty-three lines, necessitating Pyr. numbers from 2176a to 2176ee in Sethe’s system. Third, because my sequential numbers do not continue beyond a single spell, they can be easily revised if new text is discovered for spells currently preserved only in fragments. 
    This concordance is being made freely available via the internet in the hope that it will prove useful to scholars of the Pyramid Texts. It is divided into six volumes (PDF files) to make for easier downloading. This initial volume contains a list of all currently available occurrences and a transcription of spells (numbered and unnumbered) and major fragments. 
    This is by no means a final edition. The texts from the pyramids of Teti, Pepi I’s queens, and Merenre still await full publication, and a true facsimile edition of those from the pyramids of Pepi II and his queens is also needed. As new sources become available, I will add them to the CorelDraw files that are the basis of this concordance. More than a century and a quarter after they were first discovered by Maspero, the Pyramid Texts remain a work in progress.

    Perseus Digital Library's CapiTainS environment
    Capitains Nemo

    Welcome to the Perseus Digital Library's CapiTainS environment.

    Perseus is bringing its primary source texts into CTS and EpiDoc TEI compliance in the context of the efforts on the Perseids Project, which is funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
    Why CTS? "Canonical Text Services (“CTS”) is a component of the pioneering CITE architecture developed by the Homer Multitext Project. CTS offers several advantages. In brief, CTS URNs allow us to produce a semantically meaningful identifier which represents the position of a text in the hierarchy in which it is traditionally cited. This same identifier scheme can also be used to cite into the text at the passage level, within a specific version or instance of that text, or within the notional work the text represents. This permits more precise, refined citation of textual sources and provides a basis for better text alignment, text retrieval, and citation.
    CapiTainS is a suite of tools and guidelines for the CTS standards. The user interface provided here is an extension of the Nemo Flask application and the texts are served by the Nautilus CTS provider. Texts are updated directly from the PerseusDL canonical github repositories as they pass tests in the Hook Continuous Integration environment.
    How does this work relate to the current version of Perseus? Tufts University and the Perseus team are committed to maintaining Perseus 4.0 as is. The CapiTainS environment, developed through the support of the Humboldt Chair of Digital Humanities at the University of Leipzig, offers a means of demonstrating the on-going text conversion efforts as we move towards a contributor-based model of publication. It is our hope that this environment will provide the basis for further collaboration within the digital classics and digital humanities communities.
    For further information, suggestions for improvement, or error reports, please create a GitHub issue in the appropriate repository or contact Perseus via email. Repository names correspond with the collection name. For instance, Latin is canonical-latinLit; Ancient Greek is canonical-greekLit.

    U.S. Epigraphy Project (USEP)
    U.S. Epigraphy Project
    The goal of the U.S. Epigraphy Project (USEP) is to collect and share information about ancient Greek and Latin inscriptions preserved in the United States of America.

    The Project currently provides access to a database of some 750 Greek and 1,700 Latin inscriptions in the USA through browsing by collection and publication and by searching various categories of metadata (language, date, origin, type, material) and bibliographic information. A growing digital corpus of the collection registers some 400 EpiDoc editions of Latin texts and provides some 1,000 images of the inscriptions registered by the Project, each of which is identified by a unique USEP number based upon its location.

    Further information about any of the materials registered by the Project, which include texts in languages other than Greek and Latin (mainly Etruscan) from within the territory of the Roman empire and nearly 300 paper squeezes of Greek inscriptions from (mostly) Attica and the Greek cities of Asia Minor, may be sought directly from the Project staff at:

      Hellenistic Babylonia: Texts, Images and Names
      http://oracc.museum.upenn.edu/hbtin/images/banner.jpg
      More than 3,000 cuneiform clay tablets document the intellectual, religious, scientific, legal and economic activities in Hellenistic Mesopotamia. Originating primarily from Uruk and Babylon, these texts show that although Alexander the Great and his successors transformed much of the cultural landscape of western and central Asia, they left many native practices and institutions intact. Hellenistic Babylonia: Texts, Images and Names presents to Assyriologists, Classicists, ancient historians and others the evidence necessary for study of Mesopotamia at the time when traditional culture came under the powers of the Hellenistic world.
      Three primary areas of this website include up-to-date and readable publication of the materials necessary for an integrated study of Hellenistic Mesopotamia:
      » Texts: transliterations and translations into English of texts from the major sites of Uruk and Babylon.
      » Images: drawings and photographs of seal impressions on Hellenistic cuneiform texts.
      » Names: prosopographical data and family trees of the great lineages of the major sites.

      The Dead Sea Scroll Series

      Dead Sea: Josephus on the Essenes and Rome (Flavius Josephus part 2 of 2)

      In this exclusive interview, UC Classics Professor Barbara Burrell talks with Flavius Josephus, former general of the Judaeans, now captive of the Romans, in the midst of the first Judaean revolt in 71 CE. The subject of their interview is the Essenes, a community of early Jewish desert dwellers whom some scholars suggest were the preservers and possibly the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls. From the Essenes’ unusual dining, bathing, and social habits, to their troubled relationship with the ever-growing Roman Empire, and Josephus’ budding interest in writing, the two find plenty to discuss!

      Dead Sea: The Non-Biblical Texts of the Dead Sea Scrolls

      Professor John Kampen of Methodist Theological School in Ohio and Hebrew Union College shares his considerable expertise on the Dead Sea Scrolls and discusses the many types of writing preserved within these amazing artifacts. He explains that the scrolls contain, in addition to many fragments of Biblical books, many pseudo-Biblical writings, original compositions, and a wide array of texts in many genres, a great number of which have been defined only through the discovery and study of the Dead Sea Scrolls themselves. Learn firsthand what’s in many of the scrolls, why this matters, and why the study of the scrolls is so difficult even today.
      Professor Kampen is the author of Wisdom Literature, a commentary on all of the wisdom texts in the Qumran corpus.

      Dead Sea: How a Canadian University Bought the Dead Sea Scrolls and Why it Matters


      Dr. Jason Kalman of Hebrew Union College shares the remarkable story of McGill University’s attempts to purchase scrolls from Cave 4 at Qumran in the early 1950s. Although the process was complicated, drawn out, full of international intrigue, and ultimately never brought any scrolls to Montreal, McGill Professor R.B.Y. Scott’s efforts prompted others to act and resulted in the preservation of the Dead Sea Scrolls, whose study has revolutionized our understanding of ancient Judaism.
      Dr. Kalman is the co-author with Jaqueline Du Toit of Canada's Big Biblical Bargain: How McGill University Bought the Dead Sea Scrolls (MQUP, 2010) and the author of Hebrew Union College and the Dead Sea Scrolls (HUC-JIR, 2012). The book on HUC and the DSS is now available and can be purchased by contacting the Klau Library at Hebrew Union College, lwolfson@huc.edu.

      An Archaeologist Visits Qumran

      It has been over 50 years since approximately 900 Dead Sea scrolls and fragments were discovered in 11 caves in the neighborhood of Qumran, Israel. In spite of decades of scholarly debate, many questions remain about the site. Who lived at Qumran? Was it a fortress, a mansion, an agricultural center, a pottery workshop, or a commune for an ancient Jewish sect called the Essenes? Was it where the Dead Sea Scrolls were written, or just where they were collected? Journey with UC Classics Professor Barbara Burrell, your archaeological roving reporter, as she describes Qumran’s surroundings, its features, its finds, and its place in history.

      Cincinnati and the Classics Series


      Classics: The Present Disturbed Conditions: An Archaeologist in Wartime

      In 1939, University of Cincinnati archaeologist Carl Blegen was on the verge of one of the greatest discoveries of his esteemed career. The excavations he was leading in western Greece, on the Ano Englianos Ridge in the municipality of Pylos, had uncovered not only Homer’s Palace of Nestor, but also a huge deposit of clay record tablets that led to the decipherment of a prehistoric system of writing. A few short months into excavations, however, on September 1, 1939, German Forces invaded Poland. The Second World War had begun, and the astounding discoveries at Pylos had to be momentarily set aside. Drawing from Blegen’s correspondence and papers from archives on two continents, this podcast looks at his life “from the sidelines” in America between 1939 and 1942, as well as his time serving the Office of Strategic Services, a forerunner of the Central Intelligence Agency.

      Pompeii Series

      The Tombs of Pompeii

      UC Classics graduate student Allison Emmerson shares her expertise on Pompeii’s tombs. She explains ways in which monuments commemorating individuals, their families, their slaves, and former slaves can offer insights into how people lived and what they valued. While these tombs are an important part of the site for studying the dead, they also played a prominent role in the living city, serving as places to stop and sit, write graffiti, and even deposit trash.

      Roman Medicine

      Journey back in time to meet noted Roman medical writer Aulus Cornelius Celsus and naturalist Pliny the Elder as they debate the merits of Greek and Roman medicine! In this episode, listeners can learn about bone-saws, cataract operations, enemas, strange recipes for poultices, and the merits of a good bleeding, all done without the benefit of anesthesia!

      Pliny’s Letters and the Eruption of Vesuvius

      While scientists today closely monitor the world’s active volcanoes, in AD 79 when Mount Vesuvius erupted, there was little warning and panic took precedence over scientific observation. Fortunately, one famous Roman politician and writer, Pliny the Younger, was on the scene and in a series of famous letters made many important observations about the eruption and its impact on the residents of the Bay of Naples. Join UC Classics graduate student Mitchell Brown for an in-depth glimpse at these fascinating contemporary accounts of the destruction of Pompeii.

      Human Remains at Pompeii

      No trip to Pompeii is complete without a glimpse of the stunning casts of the site’s ancient residents who were trapped by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Ever since Pompeii’s rediscovery in the 1740s, the bodies of the volcano’s victims have captivated visitors to the site. UC Classics graduate student Sarah Lima delves into the study of human remains at Pompeii, and shares how they have played a prominent role in the development of modern archaeology and shaped the popular imagination of the site’s last days.

      Food Part 1 of 2 (Dining at Home)

      In this episode of the long-lost Roman cooking show, “The Splendid Triclinium,” join host Flavia Poma as she talks Roman cuisine with UC Classics graduate student Kristina Neumann. In Part 1 they examine the eating habits of the rich and famous, discuss the Roman diet, and take a closer look at Roman pots, pans, flatware, and dishes. They say “you are what you eat,” and from Pompeii we can learn a lot about what ancient Romans ate!

      Food Part 2 of 2 (Dining out and Grocery Shopping)

      In our second episode of “The Splendid Triclinium,” our host and guest move from the dining room to the fish market and fast-food restaurant! While many of the large houses of Pompeii’s wealthiest citizens had spectacular dining rooms, most of the city’s inhabitants had humble cooking facilities at home and relied on restaurants and carry-out menus. Discover where Romans did their grocery shopping, and learn about recipes for dormice (yes, mice!) and, for the less adventurous, deep-fried honey cakes.

      Gladiators

      Go live to the arena of Pompeii in early AD 79 to meet burgeoning gladiatorial superstar, Severus, fresh off a major victory! Our intrepid reporter interviews the new champ, learns about his training, his finishing moves, and asks why it’s so tricky to fight against a lefty! Severus talks corruption, riots, the politics of the games, and gives his thoughts on the construction of the new Colosseum in Rome. Learn why the Romans loved gladiatorial combat so much from someone with firsthand experience!

      Commerce and Business

      Without the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, Pompeii would not be what it is today, but without a prosperous local economy, there would have been no site at all. UC Classics professor Peter van Minnen looks to archaeology and ancient texts to answer the tough questions about how people in Pompeii made their living. Learn about ancient farming, shipping, and slavery, and discover how the very volcano which destroyed the city also gave rise to a booming local wine industry!
