This house takes its name from a Sallustius
mentioned in an electoral inscription painted on the façade. The last
owner was Cossius Libanius.
The building is Samnite and dates back to the third century B.C.. The
decoration imitates marble slabs which are actually madeof stucco in relief. The inn
next to the entrance lets us suppose that the crisis following the
earthquake pushed the owner of the house to partly use it for
profitable activities.
