condition. A photo taken in recent times (Fig. 5.134) reveals the severe degradation of the same shrine. DR (6), painted in the 2nd style, takes the form of the one ala in the house, but a couch niche (lectus medius, w. 1.06 m.) confirms that dining took place here, facing the fine 1st style decoration of the S wall of the atrium.

I.8.19 Officina tinctoria di Terentius (Fig. 2.6) Synopsis A series of lead-lined tanks and storage jars line the main room and passages of this complex, located completely underneath the peristyle of (I.8.1-3), to which this workshop originally belonged. According to Moeller, the apparatus are used for the dyeing of cloth. There is no evidence for cooking or eating at this address.

The house referred to is the Casa di Balbus (I.8.18), but scholars looked for the shrine in the SE corner of the atrium instead of the SE corner of the house, where it is located in the kitchen. Not finding the shrine in the atrium, they attributed the shrine to the more grandiose house (I.8.17). 287
50. I.9.1-2, Casa del Bell'Impluvio, casa media (Figs. 2.7, 5.6, 5.135-5.136) Synopsis KI (6) was converted from a cubiculum. A HE of sub-type (1) in the NW corner of the room served as a cooking surface (Fig. 5.135). A latrine was located to the N in room (5), and beneath both rooms was a cellar, accessed by a stair in the NW corner of the peristyle garden (13), used probably for storage and additional workspace; it has not been completely excavated (Fig. 5.135). DR•(8), just across the atrium/passageway (7), has bipartite, late 3rd style decoration marked by plaster pilasters that separate the dining area to the N from the serving space to the S (Fig. 5.136). The spacious DH◊(14), acquired from the property (I.9.15) in the early Empire, collapsed into that latter property, situated at a lower level. Ala (10), with a central square emblema of opus sectile, may have been suitable as supplementary space for dining. An iron tripod found in atrium (2) suggests additional cooking space there, and against the W wall of atrium (2) was a large cupboard filled with cooking, serving and eating vessels and utensils amongst other household goods. Paintings on the walls of the fauces have been interpreted as a shrine in the entranceway (PPM I, 922, #2-3).

I.9.3-4, Casa e caupona di Successus, casa media + diner (Figs. 2.7, 5.6, 5.137-5.139) Synopsis The one identifiable HE, sub-type (4), from this complex is built into the S end of the counter of the diner (14) at #4. The counter has solid-step shelving above the counter on the W side for displaying goods (Fig. 5.139). An additional cooking area may have been located in room (10) past the garden to the S, where two low masonry supports 1.2 m. apart perhaps supported a cooking surface (Fig. 5.138). Room (10) was apparently once part of a bath complex; Berry (pers. 288
