At the corner of Via del
Foro there is the Temple
of the Fortuna Augusta, erected by the order of Marcus
Tullius in the 3 B.C.
in honor of the emperor Augustus. Further up, there is the House
of the Faun, one of the widest and noblest residences of
Pompeii, erected in the II century B.C.,
but full of Italic and Hellenistic elements. From its environments it
comes a lot of beautiful mosaics exposed at the National
Archaeological Museum of Naples.
