Regio
V
House
of Cęcilius Jucundus
This was the house of the banker Lucius
Cęcilius Jucundus. A filing cabinet with 154
wax tiles reporting payment receipts and colonial taxes was found in a
room in the back of the peristyle. Activities had been recorded up to
the year of the earthquake. In a corner of the atrium there is a
domestic oratory (lararium)
with votive relieves. They portray the damages caused by the earthquake
in the area of the Forum,
a scene of sacrifice, and the Vesuvius
Gate. In the atrium there is also a herm with a bronze
portrait of the banker's father, Lucius Cęcilius
Felix.
