Regio
VI
Necropolis
of the Herculaneum Gate
This gate owes its name to its position: it looks
towards the city of Herculaneum.
It had three arches, a bigger one for carts and two smaller ones for
pedestrians. The necropolis bearing the same name lies just beyond the
gate. It has beautiful graves, with seats(schola), mausoleums
and in the shape of chambers.
