Pompeii is one of the most significant archaeological sites in the world. Founded in the 7th century BC, Pompeii was a thriving city teeming with commercial and cultural activities. It flourished until its tragic demise in 79 AD, when a catastrophic volcanic eruption buried it under a thick layer of ash and pumice, preserving its wonders for centuries. Among its many remarkable structures, the House of the Faun stands out as an extraordinary example of Roman architecture. This grand residence not only reflects the status of the family who lived there but also serves as a vital symbol of Pompeii’s rich cultural life.

Pompeii is an archaeological site that is always full of surprises and new interpretive proposals. In this case, it is the infographic reconstruction of one of the most important homes: the house of Julius Polybius. This Roman domus comes back to life thanks to the most advanced digital reconstruction techniques. Educational Section. Place: Conference Hall Amaia K.Z. (Irun)

Infographic reconstruction is one of the most effective ways of understanding what the ancient cities and monuments looked like. This time, we present the recreation of four sites from the Roman period in Italy: The port of Rome in Ostia; the Basilica of Constantine at Aquileia; the Roman Forum in the city of Brixia, now Brescia, and the Villa del Colombarone in Pesaro.
