Italy, Pompeii - Brothel Lupanar
Photographer:Samuel Magal (samuel@sites-and-photos.com)
The Roman word for brothel was lupanar, meaning a wolf den, and a prostitute was called a lupa (she-wolf).
Early Pompeian excavators, guided by the strict modesty of the time period, quickly classified any building containing erotic paintings as brothels. Using this metric, Pompeii had 35 lupanares. Given a population of ten thousand in Pompeii during the first century CE, this leaves one brothel per 286 people or 71 adult males.

Pompeii, Italy - The queue for the Lupanare (or Brothel).
Pompeii is a ruined and partially buried Roman city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania. Along with Herculaneum, its sister city, Pompeii was destroyed and completely buried during a catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The eruption buried Pompeii under 4 to 6 meters of ash and pumice, and it was lost for nearly 1,600 years before its accidental rediscovery around 1592. Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire.
Today, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2,500,000 visitors every year.

Temple of Apollo
Original Etruscan design, amended by the Greeks, and expanded by the Romans with the addition of a perimeter of outer columns.
The Shrine of Pompeii
Roman Catholic cathedral
The Forum of Pompeii
It was the place where all public debates and religious events were carried out, and it was the real heart of the city.
The Lupanar of Pompeii
The Lupanar (from Lupo meaning wolf, because “wolf” in Latin means “prostitute”) is the only building in Pompeii built specifically for this purpose.
House of the Faun in Pompeii
Was a sort of a modern residence and has been called the “House of the Faun” for the bronze statue of the dancing faun, who was at the center of one of the main halls.
The Pompeii Amphitheatre
This timeless place has been the scene of one of the most exciting rock history concerts. In 1971, in fact, Pink Floyd recorded their “Live at Pompeii” concert without an audience, which became one of the most memorable moments in the music history.
Located at the end of Via dell’Abbondanza is the oldest stone building of its kind that has ever been discovered. In fact, its construction dates back to 80 BC, while the first amphitheater of Rome, the one of Statilio Tauro, was built in 29 BC.
The Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii

It has been recently restored in order to bring back its ancient splendour
House of the Tragic Poet
Located in the far-west section of Pompeii, the House of the Tragic Poet is famed for its artful decoration, which includes frescoes and mosaics that are surprisingly grand for the home’s relatively small size.
The Garden of fugitives of Pompeii
This place offers visitors a frozen glimpse of Pompeii's appalling last hours: thirteen bodies of people who were trying to flee the deadly volcanic dust and rocks.
Pompeii Thermal Baths
Known as thermae, the public baths were open to all social classes, including slaves, although men and women bathed separately.
Pompeii Spectacula

Italy, Pompeii -The Macellum (Market)
Photographer:Samuel Magal (samuel@sites-and-photos.com)
The Macellum of Pompeii is located outside the northeast corner of the forum. As the city continued to grow, it was necessary to relieve pressure on the forum. When the Macellum was first discovered, because of the twelve column bases in the center, the excavators at first believed it was a kind of pantheon, a temple dedicated to many gods. However, when subsequent excavation turned up the remains of cereals and fruits in the north side of the building and fish scales and bones in the middle of the courtyard, the archeologists realized that this was a market

Traveling Europe Day 6: Pompeii, and it's Penises
Pompeii was pretty well known not just for Vesuvius, but it's brothels as well. They literally had penises on the ground that pointed to the nearest brothels. LOL Other than that, definitely an awesome place to see. I'd come here again.
