Entitled: "House of Sallust, Pompeii", shows interior view of a public restroom; seating arrangement and method of plumbing are shown, as is a man urinating. In ancient Rome, bathroom habits were much more open and, to a great extent, totally lacking in privacy. The House of Sallust is a domus or elite residence in the ancient Roman city of Pompeii. The oldest parts of the house have been dated to the 4th century BC, but the main expansions were built in the 2nd century BC. The long history of this structure provides important evidence about the development of elite residences in Pompeii. The house is located on the east side of the Via Consolare. Illustration appeared in Fosses d'aisances, latrines, urinoirs et vidanges by Joseph Franc Liger, 1875.
