pompeii city symbol

After our visit to Herculaneum, we were taken to a restaurant in the township of Pompeii, over looking the city walls of the old town, for a basic of lunch & then hooked up with a guide to show us Pompeii:... signs of graffiti from 2000+ years ago; on the ground, there is the occasional phallic symbol in the roadways, pointing towards brothels, there was the stepping stones across the roads as the roads would flood due to them not being able to build sewage system, etc.

Pompeii is one of my favorite places to visit in the Naples area. …but have you heard of Pompeii's sister city, one covered not by ash, but by mud? Let me .... There were several wee phallic symbols of various types. If I recall...

Christianity in Pompeii? This is about Pompeii and possible evidence for a toehold of Christianity in that city in 79 CE. YouTube - Christians in Pompeii First, let me warn you: this video was presented by an anonymous amateur Christian apologist who does NOT know that James Tabor and Simcha Jacobovici are, well, the flim-flam... Another such square, found on a column of a wrestling school in the town of Herculaneum, shows a fish symbol above the square.
