Nymphaeum

Nymphaeum
The nymphaeum was first created as an interior courtyard with an open ceiling which separated the commercial buildings from the residential buildings. The space was transformed into a nymphaeum with the insertion of niches with fountains. These are still visible at the base of the frescoed wall. The rectangular red structure is a well.
In the adjoining room is a floor with small white and black mosaic tiles, dating to the second century. The little room is cut by the foundation wall of the basilica. This room was part of a second-century building, and was later included in the larger domus.

Case Romane (Roman Houses), Rome, Italy.
