VII.1.8 Pompeii. December 2007. View from doorway of women’s baths. Doorway leading to praefurnium is on left. Doorway to baths palaestra is on right. According to Boyce, on the east wall (left), was a painted single serpent coiling towards an altar with offerings. He described it as being above the small arched opening that passed the conduit that supplied water for the labrum of the women’s caldarium. This would be somewhere in the vicinity of the large white patch on the wall. See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p. 95, 472)
