Those are the houses of the 1%ers. Most people lived in two room flats.

There was a documentary about the fish farms built by the Romans that was on cable recently—but the pictures weren’t as good about the interior of the villas. Maybe they couldnt get permission to shoot or something.
It focused on the engineering.

A good many lived in those grand houses, but they were slaves.

Nuceria is where one of the big garum factories was located, that one got buried by the eruption as well. :’(

Very interesting article.
It has always been good to be in the 1%.
