House composed of a vestibule, atrium with impluvium, triclinium and apartments on the floor
The house was discovered in 1938, 200 years after the official start of the excavations, hence its name. The building, with a classical axial plan, includes a vestibule, an atrium with a beautiful impluvium, a triclinium (dining room) decorated with paintings of mythological subjects, and a courtyard with a portico. The second floor was more modest and had been divided into small rented apartments. In one of them, one of the oldest testimonies of Christian worship known in the Roman Empire was found: the imprint left by a wooden cross on a wall, the holes of which remained.
