Casa dei Dipinti (I,IV,4)

G0021 - PLANETS

- "On the north wall of the second room on the ground floor".
- NSc 1878, 67, with fig.
- CIL XIV, 2037, with same fig.: drawing.

Interpretation: a parallel from Rome suggests that the first line contained the names of the seven planets. The numbers indicate the days of the month.


G0022 - DATES

- NSc 1878, 138 with fig.
- CIL XIV, 2036, with a more complete fig.: drawing.

Interpretation: many dates can be read. The word "centenarium" refers to something consisting of or relating to one hundred, such as a "pistrinum centenarium", a bakery for which a minimum investment was needed or which handled a minimum amount of grain.
