Yesterday, I was on November 7, 2010 Pompeii where I spoke to the Minister Bondi of 4 houses that I think unsafe. I told all the journalists present. They are in my opinion of an archaeologist: The House of the Silver Wedding, The House of the Labyrinth, The House of the Moralist, The House of Julia Felix.
For years, as an archeology student, then an archaeologist, I am free, and stress free, Pompeii. I have always referred to as an awkward figure. Notes are my grievances in the endless (endless for my detractors) that I spend days on excavations inspecting every corner. In fact, I have always criticized lax and incompetent in my written and oral reports. But I do not care and went on my way screaming the truth that comes from the respect I have for this ancient World Heritage city. And now this latest scandal. The collapse of Shola Armaturarum, presumably occurred around 6 am on 6 November. The area is cordoned off hours and was set up alternative tourist route to reach Port Amphitheater. The causes of structural failure investigations are in progress. The Domus Schola Armatorum is called, as it took place in the training of the gladiators of which were kept inside the armor. A first hypothesis on the causes of the collapse is about possible infiltration of water due to rains that have raged in recent days over the city and proximity to the Domus an embankment. The collapse has affected the vertical walls of the Schola, which had been rebuilt in the fifties and now are completely destroyed.
probably be saved, however, the paintings that occupied the lower part of the house to a height of about m.1, 50. The damage to 'image abroad is incalculable because the country confirms the land of ignorance, of scandals and prostitutes. In January there had been a collapse in the house of the Chaste Lovers, then the damage to Thermopolium end of September and another incident in the house of Julius Polybius. I join the cry of shame that President Napolitano has used harsh words.
"What that has happened we must all feel like a disgrace to Italy and who must give an explanation does not shirk the duty to give her as soon as possible and without hypocrisy. " Schola Armaturarum was not returned to the upper floors of restoration that cost 79 million euro well in two years of which 90% was spent on the protection and the safety of the ancient city. A second appropriation of 39 million would include the restoration of Villa dei Misteri, the Fullonica, Home dell'Efebo of Loreio Tiburtino of Criptoportico, Venus in the shell of Julia Felix, the ancient beach of Herculaneum and the Villa of Poppea to Oplontis. Two million euro have been earmarked for routine maintenance of websites. Among the recent restoration of the House of Julius Polybius, and that of the Domus of the Chaste Lovers, brought to light in 1987, she, my mistress, to which I devoted two long chapters in my Essay of archaeological Temple. The house was badly damaged in January 2010, said to a landslide. Other homes recently restored and opened to the public are to Obellio signature, the house of Marcus Lucretius Fronto, the house of Sallust, the maximum air home and the home of the Golden Cupids, Casca Longus's house, the home of the Four Styles , which sums up its frescoes by the four styles of Pompeian painting, the Thermopolium Lucius Vetutius Placidus and the house of Menander.
