Town wall

Town wall Back to the report about Herculaneum

In the foreground an altar is to be seen. The epitaph is meant for Marco Nonio Balbo, the proconsul of Crete and Cirenaica. He made available means for the equipment of the basilica and the renovation of the town wall. A statue of the proconsul was on the small pedestal next to that.

These buildings are located before the suburb thermal springs. In the background the town wall is to be seen.
